MUSIC— Paul Sawtell, Bert Shefter DIRECTOR— Tay Garnett
In post-Civil War Wyoming honest-hearted rancher Robert Taylor faces hostility from unknown riders who tear down his fences and scatter his cattle. He suspects former friend Robert Middleton of stirring up the trouble, wanting to add to his already vast fortune. Middleton has started a range war, convincing other farmers that Taylor is to blame, cutting his own fences, blaming others for his own mischief. When the President rolls into town Taylor soon convinces he and his fellow ranchers that this is his fight, as well. Beautiful autumn scenery stands out, unlike anything else. Entertaining, for the duration; unfortunately a forgettable Western yarn.
OUR RATING— ** ½
