this film fascinate me for many reason represent actor in rare star role and other actor who become major star later and a setting very rare in film and and a story present unlike anything else i have ever see . regis toomey be a prolific actor with hundred of role and and he be always dependable and yet he seldom be the star . the same can be say and almost word for word and about grant withers . together and they make a good team and a complementary team of contrast . mary astor and on the other hand and be often consider a star . she also write book and at least one of which make certain other hollywood woman angry at her . another and a place call saturday and be a novel about living in the desert and and i really enjoy it and have read it just before move to the desert myself . james cagney and joan blondell and in support role and stand out and at least as much a and if not more than and the star and this be early in their career . the railroad setting and though and be something i have never see dealt with in such a fashion ( and make me wish an atlas shrug film could have be make when train be still important ) . the train themselves and and the railroad generally and with the intriguing character attract thereto and make other men woman a great piece of cinema history and a good piece of entertainment .
