Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaLess than a year before this movie was released, Robert Mitchum co-starred with Dean Martin in another western, 5 Card Stud (1968). Unsurprisingly, as a popular crooner, Martin sang the title song for that movie, as he had for several other films in which he appeared. In response, and despite the fact he was not known for his singing ability, Mitchum insisted on recording the title song of this film.
- GoofsThe train locomotive is obviously of twentieth century construction. It has a steel cab, tender type, piston design and rod arrangement not available until the early 1900s.

Featured review
Gorgeous Angie Dickinson takes a bubble bath and all Robert Mitchum can do is stoke the fire?
"It's you and me Billy against the whole town!" Young Billy Young (Robert Walker Jr.) learns the hard way that he shouldn't mess with the stubborn but smarter Deputy Ben Kane (Robert Mitchum) and if you can't beat 'em, you may as well join 'em. It takes almost the entire film to realize that Deputy Kane has his personal reason(s) for trying to bring law and order to the local town. But Deputy Kane is up against the richest cattle rancher in a man named Boone (John Anderson) in the the territory who has hired the most hired hands and the best guns money can buy.
To keep this western interesting so that their male audience did not lose their attention the producers included a sexy saloon girl named Lily Beloit (Angie Dickinson) as the love interest of Deputy Kane. There is a memorable scene in the film in the latter half when Lily Beloit decides to take a bubble bath in her cabin and all Deputy Kane (the gentleman) can do to contain himself is to go out and get firewood and stoke the fire. Now this scene alone with Angie Dickinson in the bubble bath is worth watching this 1969 film for any teenage boy which is what I was when this film was first released.
The film moves along at a good clip with lots of gunfighting, and a good versus evil plot. I give the film a decent 6 out of 10 IMDB rating.
