i never heard of this film til it play a part of a robert mitchum retrospective at the national film theatre in london . almost 60 year on the cast list look tasty to say the least with seven name in addition to top bill mitchum in the public domain while charles mcgraw and not long off the killer and barbara bel geddes and long before dallas and arguably still well know a the daughter of theatre set designer norman and walter brennan and who need no introduction and frank faylen and the sadistic male nurse in the lost weekend and the much nicer small town mensch in it a wonderful life and robert preston still a decade away from harold hill in the music man with tom tully and phyllis thaxter make up the number . ala and most of them be waste their time . i look in vain for any ignature scene give that it be robert wise on bullhorn . by this time he would make around a half dozen film and have still to find a style . the story be our old friend the range war and mitchum must have think it be barely a cut above the hopalong cassidy oaters on which he would cut his teeth . there be no new twist if you do not count the unbelievable scene when mitchum accuse preston of sleep with thaxter to gain information about her father plan to move his cattle . this be perfectly true but how do mitchum know . we have see or hear nothing to indicate how he discover it . on balance not a lot to be say for this .
