Trivia
Final acting role for Ken Curtis. He died in April 28, 1991, at the age of seventy-four.

Goofs
The stagecoach driver says they are going to Lamesa, pronouncing it as "la maysa". Actor Barry Corbin, who is from the Texas panhandle, knows the town well and is aware that it is actually pronounced "la meesa". This was obviously due to the director.

Quotes
Johnny McGivern: Why didn't you draw on Kiowa?
Conn Conagher: You mean, was I afraid? Staples didn't need killing. He needed to be taught a lesson.
Johnny McGivern: He'd had killed you if he had the chance.
Conn Conagher: He might have. But I'll tell you something, kid. Any man who kills when he could do otherwise is crazy. Just plumb crazy. Some men take to a side of killing, Johnny. Just make sure when the killing time comes, you're standing on the right side.

One of my very favorite Westerns.

An exemplary Western in the tradition of "Shane". Conn Conagher is my kind of man... tough, courageous and most of all honorable... and Sam Elliott who is the epitome of "cool", plays him to the bone!

This movie has the feel of how it really was in the West back then with authentic dialog, scenery, dress and props of the time. It has a well written script with action, drama and warmth. For true Western fans, I recommend it highly.
