The series of six westerns that Andre De Toth produced with Randolph Scott did not reach (far from that) the level of the Budd Boetticher kinda franchise. But it contained a lot of fine things starting with the aegis of the Columbia studio. Man in the Saddle is a notch above, for instance, Gordon Douglas' The Nevadan and Irving Pichel's Santa Fe, although it's no more than just pleasant, never reaching any heights. Still playing in the court of the B series League.
