The last collaboration between director Mann and star Stewart resulted in this marvelous western classic. It's similar to their earlier efforts plot-wise but the violence portrayed is more sadistic than what was seen on the screen earlier.Stewart is very convincing in his part as a soldier seeking out his brother's murderer. There's also a subplot involving the crazed heir (Alex Nicol), the adopted son (Arthur Kennedy), of a big rancher (Donald Crisp) that lends very much tension to the movie. Crisp and Kennedy are magnificent in their parts,but I found Alex Nicol way over the top.The female love-interest is portrayed by Cathy O'Donnell who delivers a rather wooden performance.
