some interesting elements
20 January 2022
It's Santa Rosa, Texas. Sheriff Sean Kilpatrick (Richard Harris) is an Irishman who has never shot anyone. Frank Brand (Rod Taylor) leads a gang to rob a bank. It goes wrong and the Sheriff's family is killed. He alone pursues them in vengeance all the way into Mexico. Mexican Policeman Gutierrez (Al Lettieri) demands that he follows the law.

This is a simple western until the story gets into the Mexican town. I wouldn't mind staying in that town. There is an interesting dynamic with the villagers. Brand should be speaking Spanish with the villagers. I get the problem with subtitles back in the day. I wanted the village leader to have more scenes. This movie is definitely flawed but there are some interesting elements within it.
