the duel at silver creek refers to the place where the final confrontation between the good guy lead by stephen mcnally and audie murphy and the bad guy head by gerald mohr . mohr head a nasty group of bad guy who go around shoot hard work prospector after they have sign over their claim . one of them be the father of gunfighter audie murphy . marshal stephen mcnally be also on their trail and but he slow up by a gunshot wound that leave his trigger finger a might unsteady . he turn to murphy a an ally of convenience . there a lot of action in the duel at silver creek even more than the usual audie murphy western . unfortunately it to cover up some really serious problem with the story . i do not know about how you would feel and but even to the kid crowd for which this western be clearly intend and when someone show up with title to those claim it go to be rather obvious who be behind all the homicide . my guess be that don siegel film get butcher in the editing . in fact you know there a piece out of it because mcnally just all of a sudden show up in an army hospital be treat for a gunshot wound you never see take place . susan cabot play the good girl with first a yen for mcnally and then for murphy . faith domergue be the bad girl and bad a they come in western . she in cahoot with the bad guy and shamelessly flirt with mcnally and young gun eugene iglesias while all the time she act a mohr moll in a more modern gangster film style . domergue have the best role in the film and too bad the film itself be so weak . look for lee marvin in a small role a one of the outlaw gang and if youre look at all at the duel at silver creek . definitely for die hard audie murphy fan .
