    • Trivia
      Neville Brand was surprised to be offered the role of half-Comanche scout Lightfoot, a part, for which he felt he was badly suited, but accepted anyway because he hadn't been offered a better part elsewhere.
    • Goofs
      After Cahill catches onto his sons' involvement in the bank robbery, he and Lightfoot watch the boys as they're fishing. After the boys have traveled a while in the buckboard, the two men are seen watching the boys again from afar. The medium shot of Wayne and Brand shows that they're sitting on their horses in the very place from which they had been watching the boys fishing.
    • Quotes

      Lightfoot: Give me my five dollars. If you get shot tonight, I'll disappear. Oh, I'll come back and bury you... and mumble something Christian over your grave.

      J.D. Cahill: Lightfoot, your kindness overwhelms me.

    Solid Action Picture
    While US Marshall Cahill (John Wayne) hunts outlaws, his wayward sons get in way over their heads when the supposedly safe, after-hours bank robbery plan with slimy saddle-tramp George Kennedy turns into a bloodbath. When Cahill returns and ends up arresting innocent men, it sends the two youths scrambling to do the right thing.

    Though one of Wayne's later, less acclaimed movies, there's still a whole lot of fun to be had in this well produced, action filled morality tale.

    Kennedy is in truly fine form here as a truly vile bad guy, while Neville Brand, who's usually typecast as despicable villains and psychopathic cretins, delivers a standout, heroic performance as Wayne's halfbreed sidekick.

    The tense, bloody climax is pretty good.
