Featured review
This action adventure film is still another great opportunity for Richard Widmark to display his great acting talent.
In this very good film, he leads men into fighting forest fires in the Montana-Idaho areas.
When tragedy strikes, a disoriented Widmark can't remember what has transpired. The film provides a wonderful supporting performance by Jeffrey Hunter, a fellow fire-fighter, who lost his father in the blaze. A suspicious Hunter feels that Widmark ran out on his men.
The film shows what these men have to go through in fighting such dangerous fires.
Heroism is the order of the day and Widmark and company respond valiantly.
