It was pretty interesting to watch Fred MacMurray be a bad guy! He plays a bank robber who busts free only to find his younger brother had come to rescue him, under the misguided idea that he needed help. In their escape the younger brother not only gets shot himself, but he shoots and kills a deputy...and then dies. Fred MacMurray manages to make it out of town and into another where he befriends the sheriff, his niece, and widowed sister.
At the end of the day even though he is a thief, he is still a man of principal and this is his undoing in the end.
