I hate hating this film. Ford is one of the greats, and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" is the greatest Western of all time. But here, despite gorgeous cinematography and underlying tension, nothing ever comes to anything in the area of action or suspense. Perhaps Ford wanted to revel in Wayne and his character, but a good story would have done wonders for true character development. Want to see real Wayne acting under Ford - try "The Searchers".
