Multi-tasking Jennings managed to be lawyer, outlaw and movie actor. We're not likely to know how well he handled his other professions but he proves to be a more competent performer than a lot of the cowboy heroes who followed him. His lack of film star looks adds conviction.
As in his other movies, outlaw Al comes upon isolated womenfolk and, as always, acts courteously. However this lot belong to bootleggers and take our hero and his pal Slim for Revenooers. The men, looking like characters from a feuding in the hills story, come back for a shoot out with casualties on both sides and they are succeeded by the law.
Sheltering with Cherokee Indians, Al is tracked by the appealing daughter of the house but she (iris in) remembers his gentility. There's even more action to come.
This one can hold it's own with the work done around it. There's moderate suspense and the compositions are well chosen. Add this to the small body of more realistic westerns Jennings made in self justifying mode - the Marshalls are a bullying, trigger happy lot.
