Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFrom 1951-1954, Randolph Scott teamed up with director André De Toth on six westerns, some for Columbia Pictures and some for Warner Brothers: Man in the Saddle (1951), Carson City (1952), The Stranger Wore a Gun (1953), Thunder Over the Plains (1953), Riding Shotgun (1954), and The Bounty Hunter (1954).
- GoofsWhen Randolph rides into Twin Forks he is wearing a black hat and outfit and only has his saddle bags, bedroll and some supplies. When he goes asking questions he has a beige hat with a rolled brim and new outfit. Then when Randolph meets the doctor's daughter to go to church he has a totally different Stetson and is wearing a full suit with a vest. It's unlikely he could have all those clothes in his saddle bags but there is no way he could or would have been packing the two extra hats.
Featured review
Better than Most Fifties Westerns but not in the Best Category
Above Average Randolph Scott Western Directed by the Sometimes Interesting Andre de Toth. This One has a High Entertainment Value because it is More Violent at Times and has a Mystery Element that Keeps Things Going.
There is a Fight Scene where Scott Burns the Butt of a Bad Guy on a Stove and a Head Shot Squib that was Very Rare in 1954. The Characters are a bit more than One Dimensional in this Movie that was Shot in 3-D but Released Flat.
There is a Surprise Ending and Enough Gun-Play and Fisticuffs to Satisfy Western Fans and Scott's Cynical Bounty Hunter is Off Beat for a Fifties Protagonist. Marie Windsor's Wide Eyed Bar Girl and Ernest Borgnine are Highlighted Supporters. For a Weakness there is the Obligatory Marriage for that Fifties Family Wrap-Up Smarminess.
Note...Not in the same league as the Anthony Mann/Budd Boetticher 1950's Westerns but a bit Better than Most of its Ilk.
