Description
Cast: Orson Welles, Jeff Chandler, Colleen Miller
Welles stars as Ben Sadler, the wealthy and despotic owner of a ranch who practically runs the small town of Spurline. Sadler’s brutish henchmen go too far one night and beat one of the farmhands to death. Welles’s performance is a bit of a prelude to his Hank Quinlan in Touch of Evil, released the next year from the same producer (Albert Zugsmith) and studio (Universal).
