Plot
A convict escapes to rob a train.
Sinekatalog’s take
Raoul Walsh's western has Joel McCrea as an outlaw breaking out of jail for one last robbery. Tough, sad and well shot, with Virginia Mayo, it is a fast Western remake of High Sierra, full of fatalism.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
