    Picking another Robert Wagner western in the same week is a self-inflicted wound. And I thought Scott Brady was in it but it turned out to a badly illustrated poster image of Wagner. The two leads are so dry and wooden I expected the two to combust in the sun. Good supporting cast. Nicolas Ray directed this!
