Producer-director Howard Hawks teams up with legendary stars for this drama set in post–Civil War Texas, the second in the trilogy the director's easy going westerns starring John Wayne, which also included Rio Bravo and Rio Lobo. Robert Mitchum plays the alcoholic sheriff who fights greedy cattlemen and empire builders as he tries almost single-handedly to tame the West. Wayne is Mitchum's old-friend-turned-gun-fighter who comes to town, while James Caan offers an eccentric and likeable performance as a youthful gunslinger. With broad strokes of humour, Hawks works a familiar terrain with the western he-men, who manage to help Mitchum rid the town of it's unsavoury characters.
