    • Goofs
      Women did wear pants in this era out of necessity, but these pants were not anything like those worn by Julie Reynolds Dolores Michaels. The pants would not have tailored to be form fitting and probably would have been denim blue or brown. Similarly her shirts would not have been form fitting.
    • Quotes

      Dr. Seltzer: All the way from Atlanta, she said. They were burned out in the war. The two of them - shoulda been three - wanted to start a new life. They came all the way west... here... to us, my hospitable friends. That's a long way to come just to lay down and die.

    Better Title Would Have Been $1.87

    The most amazing thing about this movie was Alan Ladd. And not in a good way. Probably because of his alcoholism Ladd was almost unrecognizable. Was this Shane?? Although he was only 47 he looked like a 65 year old out of shape grandpa. His acting seemed to have diminished as much as his looks. This film would have been a lot better with someone like Audie Murphy in the lead role. Sadly as Shane is my all time favorite movie and Ladds character my all time favorite character this movie was very hard for me to watch.
