Ray Milland makes use of his silent film experience to play the first half of this movie virtually without speaking. He plays the title character, a lonely man in ever sense as he finds a group of slain stagecoach passengers, is forced to kill the sheriff (Hale, Jr.), sees another man shot before his eyes, and ends up a man wanted for all the killings. A good commentary on human weakness in the "psychological" tradition, but it gets to talky and melodramatic in the second half.Good supporting cast headed by Burr, Murphy, and Bond hold up well to Milland's straightforward playing and direction. A stark, fairly convincing western.
