    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Tab Hunter always felt that this was one of his best films because it allowed him to show that he was a talented actor and not just a pretty face. He was also able to use the superb horsemanship he had developed over many years of riding, jumping and working with horses, both recreationally and in competitions.
    • Goofs
      When Lee Hackett leaves town, chasing after his jailbreak son, Ed, he is riding a "right-maned" horse. When he catches up with Ed, he is on a "left-maned" (different) horse.
    • Quotes
      • Lee Hackett: You got to learn to respect the gun: knowing when to shoot is just as important as knowing how.
