    Outstanding movie John Wayne is my family favorite actor
  • November 19, 2008
    Average western put over by its stars. Marlene Dietrich is the most glamourous saloon keeper you'll ever see and John Wayne is young and handsome.

    Even Dietrich can't save this film...
  • December 18, 2007
    A descent Wayne film but too predictable.
  • November 10, 2007
    Great movie! Very sharp back and forth between Marlene and the Duke. Story runs a bit thin, but who cares when you've got two great actors jabbing at each other with wonderful dialog and steamy chemistry. The saloon fight at the end is worth the price of admission.
