Celebrated War Hero Audie Murphy followed His WWII Exploits with an Underrated Movie Career (mostly Westerns) with usually Above Average Films.
For some Reason Murph's Movies were Ignored, Dismissed and Not Regarded much by Critics, but Not so with the Public.
The 1950s Unleashed an Enormous amount of Westerns on the Big and Little Screen.
He Soldiered through these Stories Never giving a Bad Performance. He once said..."Acting was a battle I didn't win".
But Modesty aside, He was and Still is a Screen Star and His Professionalism and Boyish Appeal is Resonant, even Today.
This one has Plenty of Action and Charm. He shares the Star Power with the Titular Horse who Captivates and Sides the Action with Abilities Far Beyond the Normal.
Other Humans who Impress are Chill Wills who gives an Atypical No-Comedy-Relief Role a Certain Down-Home Rendition of the Sheriff. Lee Van Cleef in Yet another Edgy Good-Bad Guy Character also makes His Presence Known.
Lori Nelson is a Beauty who Looks Great in Technicolor but Doesn't have Much to do Except be Beautiful and Stand By Her Man.
Overall an Above Average Western with Wide Open Spaces, a Goodly Amount of Gun-Play and the Indians are Given a Fair Shake.
It's Stunningly Attractive in all the Glory that is the Hollywood Hey-Day of the Western, and Audie Murphy and All Involved can be Proud.
