Trivia
This is the second movie to which Brian Donlevy plays Quantrill. The first was "Kansas Raiders" with Audie Murphy in 1950.

Goofs
The film has John Lund's Confederate officer give himself up and declare the Civil War over, because Richmond, Virginia had just surrendered (in early April 1865). However, in actual fact the Confederate Army of Trans-Mississippi, of which he was part, fought on and did not surrender for another month-and-a-half.

Very fun movie!

I do not write many reviews. However I feel compelled to write this 1 about a film I had never hear of.

I am a big fan of westerns and chanced upon this movie. And I found it a very well made and fun movie. The cast on a whole from saloon gals, to mayor and city committee, to bar employee, to confederate and union soldiers including Quantrell raiders, and city folk really seemed to enjoy their roles. My guess this film was a gas to make. The writing was good with appearances of Jesse James and Cole Younger. And directed well by somebody who had many years of experience.

Overall I gave this movie an 8. High rating for a entertaining movie!
