There's a problem with Stretch as a western hero. I don't mind the leading man being conflicted. Wayne, Scott and Stewart often were. But this guy's morality, up to the final scenes, only extends to being prepared to honor a deal to let his victims keep half their property. And he only decides on that after Granpa, for no good reason, has decided to save him from the apaches. It ends with two of his sidekicks, who in the previous scene were happy to attempt to murder Ann Baxter and her gramps for whatever gold they had, turning over a new leaf and handing back their ill gotten loot. For the other two this about turn makes no sense. And the only motive for Stretch seems to be his infatuation with Baxter
