This Audie Murphy has always gone past my radar, finding it low key but after having seen it properly, I have realised it's a solid film with some suspenseful moments. Audie shows what a natural actor ( in the vein of Gary Cooper) he is, and his contentious character contrasts greatly to Dan Duryea's flawed character. Audie befriending the dog was a nice touch, and highlighted the character's kindness, which, again, emphasised the difference between him and Duryea's character. Great dialogue, impressive cinematography that captures the location well - good little western.
