Description
Cast: Arthur Kennedy, Betta St. John, Roy Engel
This wonderful, spare western, filmed in color, is one of the few major studio efforts by the prolific, expressive, and eclectic European émigré director Ulmer. A romantic triangle develops when an outlaw (Kennedy) convinces a poor and reluctant homesteader couple to be his accomplices in a series of robberies.
