I never really rated this movie,but after seeing it again today,it's certainly got a lot going for it.A great story,good music,although a little over bearing on some occasions,and what about the supporting cast.I would've like to have seen more of Ben Johnson ( what a great western actor ).
It may have been a little too long,I would've shortened the scene where he's bringing back Bruce Dern and the two young men through the desert.The romance angle with Inger Stevens could've been cut out alltogether.
But all in all it's a good movie,and it was Clint's first American Western so it's definitely worth another look.
