At 2 hours and 50 minutes, this picture would have had to be good to keep me interested. It was. The story was riveting and the western scenery was awesome.
A retired sea captain, James McKay, played by Gregory Peck, decides to try a life on the western frontier. He finds himself in the middle of a personal feud between two big ranchers and a fight over water. The story blurs the line between the good guys and the bad guys. Besides Peck, other stars include Charlton Heston and Burl Ives.
My Rating: *****
