Kirk Douglas and Anthony Quinn are at their best. Carolyn Jones is a central character who recognizes the one good man played by Douglas with his devotion to his raped and murdered wife. She gives an outstanding performance. The gunfight is terrific. The plot is complex, multi-faceted and ahead of its time. Action-packed, excellent plot and acting, great ending with justice and mixed emotions. This movie gets better each time that I've watched it...3 so far.
