I think it's terrific; a great performance by Taylor and James Whitmore. Jessup is credited with the screenplay, too.

Several carried reader reviews which gave high ratings. Have you read any of his crime? --- Threat, Deadly Duo, Wolf Cop, Low Down. Another western, Savadilla, carried strong reviews, too. Looks like a writer to check out, for sure.
