In this beautifully shot, psychologically complex western, Van Heflin is a mild-mannered cattle rancher who takes on the task of shepherding a captured outlaw (played with cucumber-cool charisma by Glenn Ford) to the train that will deliver him to prison. This apparently simple mission turns into a nerve-racking cat-and-mouse game that tests each man’s particular brand of honor . . . (The Criterion Collection)

Except that the ending is romantic and incongruous, in the face of what goes on, this is a first-rate action picture—a respectable second section to "High Noon."
