starring Gary Cooper with Julie London , Lee J. Cobb
A grim off-beat Western, set in Arizona in 1874 and directed with consummate skill by Anthony Mann. Gary Cooper plays a reformed gunslinger, Link Jones , whose past catches up with him when he falls into the clutches of his former gang-leader, Dock Tobin. After years of trying to build a new life as a solid citizen, Link is forced to rejoin the old gang rather than confront them openly.
Screenplay by REGINALD ROSE based on a novel by WILL c. BROWN Produced by WALTER M. MIRISCH
