i be a big fan of western but this one . whew and what a stinker . i think what turn me off almost right off the bat be the inane dialog . i think i could have write well dialog than this when i be in eighth grade . and the poor actor . give this terrible dialog and none of them come across look anything but ridiculous . really and i be not kid . some of this be little good than what you would get in an ed wood film . the big tragedy be sterling hayden . he be probably the big star in this movie which if you call it a b western and you would be lavish praise upon it . this be what should be call a b minus western perhaps . pity sterling hayden and who appear at other time along with joan crawford and bette davis and frank sinatra and and other major talent . for him to appear in a vehicle this poor must have be something he try to downplay for the rest of his life . one annoy thing about this movie be all the men look like they haven not shave in a week and their face be all greasy . i know in the old west guy weren not always well groom but to a man this be a movie that make you want to just go ewwww . really and this be a crummy western . denver pyle also have to live this one down and especially after appearance in so many great western . bad and bad movie .
