Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for the film, writer and director Richard Brooks, and cinematographer Conrad L. Hall. A western that is beautifully done, and seems to have been overlooked by those who rate Westerns.
A splendid cast with Lee Marvin (Cat Ballou), Burt Lancaster (Elmer Gantry, From Here to Eternity), Jack Palance (City Slickers, Claudia Cardinale (A Girl in Australia, Il giorno della civetta), and Robert Ryan (Crossfire). Also, of note is Marie Gomez, who got a Golden Globe nomination for her role as Chiquita.
Great action and an excellent script. An enjoyable western classic.
