Delmer Daves offers an eye-popping western in the then CinemaScope projection with mighty star Richard Widmark, Felicia Farr, Susan Kohner who had a brilliant young career, but gave it all up and Tommy Retting from the television famed Lassie series. It's a theme we all know and have seen dozen of times: that of covered wagons trying to make it through the great plains and all its dangers, not the least of which are the several Indian tribes. I'm giving this old-time oater a six as it would have been absolutely spectacular to see on that immense CinemaScope screen in theatres.
