Maybe Scott`s best picture. How narrow the gap between good and evil is.Great performance from Richard Boone as the No.1 nasty, whom you can feel empathy for but in the end are happy with what happens. Scott counterpunches beautifully, never throwing the first stone in a performance that ranks this film on the top shelf of westerns. Only Randolph Scott would admit he was scared. That`s why this film is great, long before Eastwood, there was realism in the Western.
