Directed by Anthony Mann
Actor James Stewart portrays relentless bounty hunter Howard Kemp, who together with a drifter and morally dubious ex-soldier pursues outlaw Ben Vandergroat (played to perfection by Robert Ryan) for the $5,000 reward on his head. Stewart delivers a morally complex performance as he struggles to resist killing and violence, only to finally give in to his primal urges.
