Hello FolksThis Murphy movie is I believe one of his top 5 movies he ever made. This movie is superior to "The Fast Gun" and similar in quality to my favorite Murphy film "No Name on the Bullet". Actually in reality, I have never seen an Audie Murphy film I haven't liked. It simply is a question of degree of liking. Burl Ives is an interesting singing and strumming friend of the Hassards. Ives plays a role very different from many of his other films. Here he can act tough but is gentle and wise with children. Ring Hassard (Murphy) and his dad (Dean Jagger) have a hidden valley in the mountains where they capture and tame wild horses. Their cabin is also hidden and it is the type of setting people today would love to camp in rustic yet comfortable. The story line runs about a dad who is blamed for a murder he didn't commit and escapes seriously injured from a fire and (lynch mob attitude) town to the hidden valley(mountain) along with his wife. His wife is only referred to in the movie dies in the hidden valley cabin during their first year (all Ring says is that life on the mountain was very hard. We are left guessing if his mother died giving birth to their son Ring (Murphy) or from some other sickness. Ring's Dad has to raise him alone. Ring is taught that the people in the town below the mountain are not to be trusted nor visited but only by exception. When Murphy goes into town he only uses his first name Ring because his dad and the Hassard name are thought dead but otherwise his dad would still be wanted for murder. Ring's secret becomes known and now his dad, the secret valley and their wild horses are in jeopardy. The town's naive and anti Hassard prejudiced Sherriff let's a group of unsuspected horse thieves lead a vigilante pose to track down the Hassards. In reality the pose (horse thieves) want to steal the Hassard`s horses and kill Ring and his dad before the truth and true justice can be revealed and served. Well the good guys win and Ring's dad is cleared from the murder charges by a self confessed dying bad guy who vindicates him. Ring and his new and serious girl friend Riley Martin (Audie's actual wife in real life Wanda Hendrix) are headed for marriage and they live happily ever after. Hope you are high on Sierra like me.Hope this helps.Blessings,Phil

THIS FILM HAD A REALLY SERIOUS, AS WITNESSED BY THE TEXTURE OF THE LACK OF SMILING, IF ANY, DONE BY MURPHY. MOREOVER, HEWAS COSTARRING WITH HIS REAL WIFE, WANDA HENDRIX, CHARMING AND BEAUTIFUL. AN AMAZING CAST LED BY DEAN JAGGER, AS RING’SFATHER AND BURL IVES DOING A LOT OF SINGING AND HANGING AROUND. RING IS AUDIE’S FIRST NAME, WHICH HE USES IF HE EVER GOESINTO TOWN, SINCE THEY PEOPLE DISLIKE RING WILLIARD’S FAMILY AND THE SHERIFF IS CROOKED AND DESPISES THEM. THE SURROUNDINGS ARE, MAGNIFICENT AND MAY HAVE BEEN FILMED IN ARIZONA, OR NEW MEXICO. YOU WILL EVEN NOTICE JAMES ARNESS AND TONY CURTIS, USING DIFFERENT FIRST NAMES. THIS IS A FILM ALSO FOR TEENS TO SEE A HOLLYWOOD LEGEND, I.E. AUDIE MURPHY.THE COLOR ON AN HD SET IS MESMERIZING AND THE 🎵 MUSIC IS FABULOUS . ONE OF HIS TOP THREE FILMS, AFTER BEING A TRUELIFE WAR HERO . ENJOY.

My husband collects movies and this was one he did not have so he will be thrilled to see it under the tree!!!

I'm a big fan of A.M. I'd pretty much say he never made a bad movie....but, I know... he did....... but his isn't one of them. It is stock plot and acting... it is typical Audy... well, I have to face it... I've just never seen a bad Audy flick... or at least...one I'd never say wasn't good in part. This flick is worth the bread. Don't hesitate to get it. You will enjoy this movie.

Missing in this movie is Audie Murphy's smile. The altitude and dryness made Murphy's lips so sore that it hurt for him to smile. Burl Ives is a great supporting actor and minstril. Events in the filming of the horse stampede, help shape future when 2 horses were killed and another injured. Breath taking scenery and a seldom used plot line.

Good DVD

I liked this movie for its story and the acting of audie murphy and burl ives along with dean jagger. It's the story of an outlaws son that catches wild horses to sell with the help of a friend to keep his fathers wherebouts secret. I would highly recommend it to all western fans.
