Glenn Ford plays a Texan who's pegged a traitor after leaving the Alamo to fall, and everyone defending it to die. He sets out to save his wife and son, only to find them dead and his house burnt down.
Budd starts his vengeful wronged man with dead/raped wife theme here, a big jump in grittiness compared to THE CIMMARON KID one year earlier. Julie Adams plays the love interest. Maybe it's me but she is too damn pretty to be wagon training across the west, but I am glad she's here. Glenn plays the wronged man full of vengeance well.
An almost, kinda epic.
