The reviewer who commented on Hawk of Powder River, saying that Eddie Dean knew he was shooting a female must not have been paying close attention. Dean is shooting his six guns randomly aiming at no one or nothing in particular. Jennifer Holt is wearing a bandana over her face, with the imprint of a hawk just barely visible. When she is shot, she throws her arms and falls. When Eddie goes to investigate, he takes her mask and says "Vivian (whatever her last name was in the script" and the scene fades out. The irony of this film is that Jennifer played a villianess, where she usually was the hero, and June Vincent, usually a "bad girl" as she was in Rex Allen's Colorado Sundown, played the heroine. I do agree with the reviewer's comment that given the right parts in major or non-western dramas, Jennifer could have given Jane Greer "a run for her money."
