    • Goofs
      When Joel fights with the man sent to fire him, he pushes the guy through a wooden railing and it can be seen where the board has been pre-cut. In subsequent shots, the ends of the board are more splintered. Also, one end of the board appears to be attached to the post by a hinge.

    business and personal relationships
    Laura (Suzanne Pleshette...Hi Bob!) is married to Matt (Ralph Meeker), but we can see right off she's not as happy as she might be. They hire horse trainer Joel, played by Ty Hardin, who married eight times. Tied with Liz Taylor! Laura gives Joel good advice on how to deal with hubby, but when Laura gives Joel more than advice, Joel is canned. So he figures a way to buy a long shot horse and try going into business for himself. Ups and and downs along the way, if he can get the horse in shape to win. Now, for better or worse, he's on his own! Directed by Richard Wilson, who had worked with Orson Welles for years. The film is a little formula, and the last ten minutes are pretty corny, but aside from that, it's mostly good. Kind of a study in business and personal relationships.
