A Great But Incomplete Day **
21 April 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Disappointing film. The problem here is the incomplete character development. How will Owen Pentecost (Robert Stack) deal with the young lad whose father he killed in a gunfight? Ruth Roman getting knifed in the end by a threatening Raymond Burr, a character totally underdeveloped character, what's his real reason for wanting a Civil War between the states?

Owen admits his love for Ann (Virginia Mayo) who has come to Denver to open a dress store. Is it true love or was it convenient to say this so that the union soldier who loved her as well will free her?

The script is quite weak in this film. It's the same as a grammar lesson trying to convey the idea of dangling participles.

While there is little ammunition here, there is absolutely no beef?
