The only bad thing about this video is that it is not a director's cut! I remember a little more detail from the original release in theaters. An outstanding western and cavalry movie.

This is a rip roaring western starring Tom Tryon and Harve Presnell, two of my fave actors! Both of these gentlemen were naturals and neither were given enough credit in their careers. This movie is a chance to see both at the height of their fame, and it is well worth the viewing. It is a cavalry movie...nuff said.
