Run-of-the-mill western. A fictional adventure of the legendary Jim Bowie(Macdonald Carey), who represents the government in keeping peace between the Comanches and whites. Silver has been found on Comanche land and a treaty has been stolen. It appears that a fiery redhead saloon keeper(Maureen O'Hara)and her brother(Charles Drake)know more about the situation than they let on. The 'white skins' plan on making a small fortune from mining the silver on the land they take from the Indians.
O'Hara is the movie. Carey is just too wooden in his portrayal of an otherwise flamboyant Bowie. Other cast members: Will Geer, Parley Baer, James Best and Glenn Strange.
