This western belongs to those films made around Mississippi, as GAMBLER FROM NATCHEZ, DUEL ON THE MISSISSIPPI, RAWHIDE YEARS, IRON MISTRESS, not too many actually; forget ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN, this is not a western at all, at least not as much as this one. But you won't find here any cavalry, Indians, outlaws, desert possee, gunfight in front of a saloon...This kind of movies has its rules: gamblers, river boats, French speaking supporting characters, or English speaking with a very strong French accent, sometimes a sword fight, or an old fashioned pistol duel, at dawn, on a field, with witnesses.... Tyrone Power is awesome in this Universal production - hired from Twentieth Century Fox, I guess, his "home" studio - this is a role for him, more than some other actors. I would not have imagined seeing Kirk Douglas, the Duke, Bob Mitchum, Jimmt Stewart.... It is an agreeable adventure western film from Rudy Maté.
