I saw the film when it was released in the 1960's, and was so pleased to see it again on DVD. One of my top 20 films !
Four childish alcoholics beat up some horses, I don’t know what I was supposed to get out of this ‘contemporary western’.
All five principal actors are brilliant, alone and together. Monroe is so young and comes over so mature, An equal in acting maturity with the others AND beautiful. I love the authenticity, the horror of the rodeo and capture of the mustang, the daring of he mountain flight and roping of the animals. It is a very beautiful and fearful play and I love it. Malcolm
