It presents two major stars (Burt Lancaster, Audrey Hepburn) and an outsize posse of featured players (Audie Murphy, Charles Bickford, Lillian Gish, John Saxon, Albert Salmi, June Walker, Joseph Wiseman). It was directed by John Huston, whose Treasure of the Sierra Madre is one of the best westerns ever made, and it was shot from a script by Ben (The Asphalt Jungle) Maddow that seizes a timely and heroic theme, the struggle between human feeling...
