Very good western,where one more time the villain (Tab Hunter) is much more interesting than the good (James Darren) and his bland girlfriend . The a- man -had-two-sons subject was plundered since the Bible was written ,but,unlike "East of Eden" ,in the boys rivalry for the love of their fathers,it's the one the old man likes best who turns out badly."I wish you could be like your brother" he says to dutiful Davy.The relationship between Ed and Lee Hackett is much subtler than it at first appears.Good use of cinemascope,notably in the scene when Ed Hackett catches a beautiful white mare.The ending is a bit too predictable but it is a thoroughly enjoyable western.
