Directed by Anthony Mann
In the last of his eight films with director Anthony Mann, James Stewart plays a vengeance-minded stranger who alights in a frontier town seeking the man responsible for his brother's death. His revenge scheme involves him in a kind of high desert Oedipal struggle between ailing cattle baron Donald Crisp, his hotheaded son and his sober foreman over the future of the largest ranch in the territory.
