Did You Know?

Trivia:
This film, along with the equally allegorical High Noon (1952), was a deciding factor in making Howard Hawks turn out Rio Bravo (1959), a return to simpler, less revisionist Westerns.See more »
Goofs:
Continuity: When Dan is walking Wade across the street to the train station, through the herd of cattle, they are walking forward. After the next cut they are walking backward. There was no transition between walking forward and walking backward to give a sense that they changed positions and direction.See more »
Quotes:
[first lines]
Mr. Butterfield, Stage Line Owner:Let me warn you - I am Mr. Butterfield; this is my line, these are my passengers. You bother any of them, I'll hound you from here to kingdom come.

Another great western from Elmore Leonard, 1 November 2001
Author: shhazam2 from California

This movie was enjoyable to me before I knew anything about Elmore Leonard's writings.

The underlying story is made into a very watchable movie by the director and involves a ruthless but insightful gunman being held for subsequent transport by train which will take him to prison. The job of guarding him is taken on by reluctant guard. This temporary guard is a civilian who takes on the job only because he desperately needs the money to save his farm and family.

Typical of Leonard stories, the main characters have strengths and weaknesses not at first evident but when these traits become evident they are significant factors in the outcome of the story.

It is an intelligent movie which is great to watch. I highly recommend it.
