Taylor, an ex-gunfighter enjoying a peaceful existence on his ranch, finds his life suddenly turned upside down when kid brother Cassavetes arrives. Cassavetes, who has brought dance hall girl London and a gun along, proceeds to get himself and his brother in a peck of trouble when his temper and quick draw result in the killing of a man who has threatened Taylor. Enjoying the power a gun gives him, he terrorizes a group of squatters, which brings a visit from landowner Crisp, who wants Taylor and his unstable brother to leave before there is any more killing. Instead, Cassavetes gets into a gun fight with Crisp's men and is wounded. Taylor goes out to find his brother but before he can help him Cassavetes shoots himself. A solid western that takes few chances, but overall finely done and entertaining. leave a comment
