I Think They Spent Most Of The Budget On Miss O'Hara's Costumes
19 December 2021
This shaky A western stars Maureen O'Hara in a variety of fancy dresses. With a range war brewing, old flame William Bishop imports her and her wardrobe to serve as a beard for his operations when she isn't running her obligatory saloon. She's caught between Bishop and mild-mannered sheriff Alex Nicol.

Besides a very purple tuille number, Miss O'Hara wears a black lace dancing outfit for the final shootout, in which she handles a shotgun. I found it a striking and discordant image, typical of auteur Lee Sholem. A decent, if rote script, the usual cast that had been filling out B westerns for a quarter of a century, and some nice color photography by Winton Hoch complete the ensemble.
