Unusual for John Sturges this spy adventure yarn, taking place in the USA during the late eighteenth century. It is a bit talkative, a bit much but interesting to watch. Not my favourite fromTHE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN director. I will watch it again later, not now, because it brings something that most other adventure films from this period don't. Not the most known from Sturges, and the production design is absolutely well done, convincing. But I am not a historian, so I won't comment the accuracy or not of the details of this movie. I was glad to see this one, which I had never heard about before the late eighties. I did not know that Sturges made this feature.
