One of over a hundred Columbia features, mostly Westerns, sold to Hygo Television Films in the 1950s, who marketed them under the name of Gail Pictures; opening credits were redesigned, with some titles misspelled, the credit order of the players rearranged, some names misspelled, and new end titles attached, thus eliminating any evidence of their Columbia roots. Apparently, the original material was not retained in most of the cases, and the films have survived, even in the Sony library, only with these haphazardly created replacement opening and end credits.
Two endings were shot, one tragic and another more conventional. Prints with both endings are in existence.
A tribe of real Arapahoes appears in the film.
The film originally had a tragic ending but it was reshot with a more conventional one.
Although the first entry states that the replacement title cards eliminated all traces of their Columbia origin, the cast / technical credits for this film are clearly in the style of that studio, the alterations coming over as being both pointless and damaging to the general effect of this movie.
