    • Quotes

      Nardo Denning: In case you're interested, Cameron, your wife's behavior with me tonight has been impeccable.

      Ben Cameron: I'm just a farmer, Denning, I don't know what the word "impeccable" means. If it means what it sounds like, uh, congratulations.

    Good fun
    Quite entertaining, good characters, a nice movie to watch when you want to relax. Anthony Quinn is very sexy and Ray Milland a good villain. Don't miss it!
