Scott Gets Good Backup

Warning: Spoilers
Obviously because of it's length this Warner movie was made as a second feature for a double bill at 90 minutes in length. The thing is the director here does an excellent job of putting together a western drama and the color on this film is very impressive too.

Charles Bronson is young but you can pick him out right away. The Western town sets used here are used in many other western films. For a second banana, this movie is good and shows why Randolph Scott was so popular in the 1950's.

The plot is there enough to hang onto and the supporting cast in addition to Bronson is plenty good. This one is better than average second billing film fare. Glad TCM ran it on a summer under the stars night along with several of Scott's lesser known films like this one
