Anecdotes
Sara Montiel was originally cast in the role of Teresa and filmed some sequences in Brazil's Matto Grosso jungle. There are stills where she is seen handling a big snake, possibly an anaconda, along with Glenn Ford, Cesar Romero and others in the cast. In her 2000 autobiography, Sara relates how the production ran out of money and everybody was sent back to Hollywood with canceled contracts. Months later, she was called to resume filming but by then she had signed with Warner Bros. and could not finish the film. She was replaced by Abbe Lane and her scenes were re-shot.

Gaffes
The language of Brazil is Portuguese, yet every "native" in this movie either speaks Spanish or a terrible mix of the two.

Stevie: Pa, how far is Brazil?
Barney Dent: That's a long way away, Stevie - clear across the world.
Daughter: Is it as far as Amarillo?
Barney Dent: Yeah, farther!
Stevie: Why are our bulls going to Brazil?
Barney Dent: Because we sold 'em to a rancher down there.

Western in Brazil

What an interesting story, this western made in Brazil. As also was Hugo Fregoonese's SAVAGE PAMPAS, made ten years later in Argentina. During those golden years for western, it was very rare that those films were not made in the USA, Mexico, Spain or Italy...The story however brings nothig really new, besides those new settings for an American western. Good pace, solid acting, convincing directing elements; only the story is not flawless. Frank Lovejoy is excellent in this film; I don't remember he made other films with Glenn Ford, besides this one. William Castle will abandon this kind of films a few years later for his famous horror gimmick films cycle. His best part.
