Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBarbara Stanwyck's stunt woman refused to be dragged by a horse, saying that it was too dangerous. Without further ado, Stanwyck did it by herself. She got some bruises and scrapes, but was okay. At that time, she was 49 years old.
- GoofsWhen the gunsmith is fitting Wes for a new rifle, he is holding the stock from a model 1898 Mauser, which would not be invented for another 20 years. Wes also picks up a Winchester and looks through the barrel to see the lady gunsmith, which is not possible due to there being no straight line of sight through the action.

Featured review
This movie is one of my favorite Sam Fuller films and for that matter of one Stanwyck's best. This was one of Stanwyck's later pictures when she had a lower price range and she made some of her best pictures in this period. I know not too many people are going to agree with that but so what. Barry Sullivan never made it out of the "B" pictures and when he did he was just in a supporting role. Sullivan plays a Wyatt Earp type with his two brothers and he just wants to retire. The old west is dying out and Stanwyck would also like to get out. This movie sort of reminds you of Johnny Guitar with Joan Crawford but it would hard to say which one is better. If you are a fan of Stanwyck's or Fuller's would should see this movie.
