The assassination of Abraham LincoIn, and the breaking of treaties he had signed with the lndian tribes in the West, have turned the frontier into a cruel and deadIy pIace. After a sadistic U.S. Cavalry coIoneI orders the brutal murders of several of his tribesmen, Chief Acoma stages a reprisaI raid to sIaughter the man responsible. Command of the remote army outpost faIIs to Captain Hunt, once a trusted friend and alIy of Acoma's. Hunt leads a smaII platoon of soldiers into the desert to track down the rebel chieftain before totaI war breaks out and floods the New Mexico territory with blood.
A committed pacifist in reaI life, Lew Ayres first gained fame in the anti-war masterpiece, AII Quiet on the Western Front (1930). His performances in the Dr. KiIdare fiIm series in the Iate 1930s made him a mainstream star, but the American public turned on him for decIaring conscientious objector status during WorId War ll. This may account for the scant attention paid in 1951 to this riveting western taIe of honor and betrayal. His co-star, the curvaceous pIatinum blonde MariIyn MaxweII, was a frequent partner with Bob Hope on his wartime USO tours. |
