Every time people talk about great westernS, movies like High Noon, The Searchers, Red River, Stagecoach and The Wild Bunch are always mentioned. I certainly agree, those are great films, but sometimes we overlook other, less known films that are as good, or better that the official classics. This is one of those films. A great, poetic masterpiece, filled with many moments of truth. Gary Cooper is a doctor with a mysterious past, Maria Schell is the blind lady he takes care of, Karl Malden is the greedy gold miner that clashes with Cooper and George C. Scott is a crazy preacher, they are all superb! Great cinematography, unforgettable title tune by Jerry Livingston (the title Song won an Academy Award Nomination) and a heartbreaking ending!
