I saw this one especially for Broderick Crawford as the villain, he is perfect here and all long the film, you expect and hope a final showdown between him and Murphy, whose it is not the best role. He seems to be twenty or thirty years old, as usual in his career. The most interesting is that movie is a paella - Spanish - coproduction. No, nothing really special here, in this western where the saloon gunfight scene climax seems to be a tribute to George Marshall's DESTRY, a western also starring Audie Murphy, but far far better; and George Marshall was not a western specialist, unlike Lesley Selander, who directed this one. Supporting characters really look like Spanish, and certainly not Texans. Amusing.
