    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The pistol Ben (Gary Grimes) shows off to Tim (Charles Martin Smith) at the beginning of the movie and later kills his first man with during the saloon shootout, is a model 1858 Remington Army.
    • Goofs
      Immediately after starting the drive, the cook needs to spit, and does so across Ben, who is sitting beside him. The cook then tells Ben that he better "Sit down wind." This is wrong, because Ben should sit Up Wind. You never spit Into-The-Wind, you always spit With-The-Wind or Down Wind. The line should have been, "You better NOT sit down wind."
    • Quotes
      • Cook, Culpepper Outfit: You really got the itch, ain't ya?
      • Ben Mockridge: Well, yeah, I do. I guess all I want to do is punch cows and ride and, well, just cowboying. There's nothing better than that. That's all I want.
      • Cook, Culpepper Outfit: Kid, cowboying is something you do when you can't do nothing else.
