One of the worst, even though Buster Crabbe (Moya), the Indian leader and the Indians win. Crabbe gives a dignified portrayal of the Chief and there are good social politics in an otherwise disappointing movie. Smiling Tom Keene forces himself on beautiful Marsha Hunt - yes, she likes him and marries him at the end - but the way Keene goes about courtship is obnoxious and hard to take. IMDb says Hunt, active from 1925-2008, appeared in 115 movies/TV shows - not a shameless self promoter, her career stalled in the 1940s and McCarthy-era blacklisting in the 1950s again kept her from stardom. Robert Cummings, in an early supporting role,plays a whiny, insipid, somewhat stupid mining engineer who constantly wishes he were somewhere else - he provides comedy, if you can call it that - well, no fault of his, that's what the script and director asked for. Monte Blue gives a low key edge to the vile, murderous gang boss. Yes, its watchable - there's action, music (on the piano) and humor of an insipid sort - if that mix is your idea of fun. IMDb says 59)), we only get
55:16 - and that's more than enough.
