Mann, Nichols, Fonda, Van Cleef and Perkins is some kind of dream team. It doesn't have the tension and wit of Mann's best (Winchester 73, The Man from Laramie) and some moments are bald-faced Shane ripoffs, but aside from those hiccups this is a very smart and progressive western. The treatment of indians is an interesting extension of the inhumanity of The Devil's Doorway.

There's some great photography and a few good performances here. The script is very talky but a lot of it is very meditative.

The only western that's ever put me to sleep. I'm not sure how, with all the talents present, this turned out so average - the writing/characterizations are probably most to blame.

Good work from all concerned, but the talky Dudley Nichols script lacks tension. Fonda, Perkins and McIntire are fine.
