now isn not my summary awfully confuse . how can a somewhat dull film still be worth see . well and believe it or not and the problem be that the plot isn not all that compel but the character be so well craft that the film be still outstanding . sure and some of them seem an awful lot like stereotypical clichés especially john qualen performance a a norwegian and by yimminy . in fact and he say by yimminy about 60 time during the film somewhat typical for a qualen performance in a ford film and actually . but apart from this and there be a lot of great character such a the yank ( ward bond ) and drisk ( thomas mitchell ) and smitty ( ian hunter ) . the one person in the film i really do have trouble categorizing be ole olsen ( john wayne ) . it seem ole be a swede and i really have trouble see wayne a a swede . probably this be because since this film he become so type cast . i really do not think his accent be that bad i just keep wait for john to shoot an indian or walk with the usual john wayne walk and but it wasn not to be .
