    • Trivia
      Film scouts came to Oklahoma for possible locations but Alberta, Canada, was chosen to save money. Elliott quit the project over this since TNT had agreed to shoot in Oklahoma as an early condition of Elliott's involvement. Director Harrison convinced him to return but he has said that his biggest regret on this movie was not shooting it in on location. The film did have its premiere in a theater in Oklahoma City, and Elliott attended.
    • Goofs
      Tilghman refers to "Wild Bill" Hickok as William B. Hickok, when his real name was James B. Hickok.
    • Quotes

      Alibi Joe: He's the first person to ever treat me square. You know what he told me? He said, "You're not a bad man, Joe - you just got drove into a corner." And that's the God's truth to it.

    Okay, but lacking something

    Maybe it was the fact that it was a western set at the start of the modern time period, but something about this movie was lacking. Sam Elliot as Tiglman is excellent and Carolyn McCormick as his wife was a nice bit of casting. However, Arliss Howard as the corrupt federal agent was so over the top you would think you were supposed to be watching a present day drug film. Elliot should be acknowledged as a master of the western movie genre, if he hasn't been already. However, this movie didn't have enough of the "western" qualities for me. I'll sit back and watch Conagher again to see Elliot in top form with a great "western" storyline.
