Reviews

[Mateo Tomas · Rating 3 out of 5]

"This was the other side of the picture of freedom and gaiety which had seemed so fascinating to him .

There was the life in the open, the wild rides, the keen adventures, the easy money for spending, the true friends-and there were bullets, also, and either real death, or living death behind prison"

[John Rallios · Rating 5 out of 5]

An exciting old Western about the son of a wealthy but humble self-made man who attempts to come to his father's aid when he is financially devastated. But he ends up on the wrong side of the law as it partners with the infamous Dude. It is a story of redemption, mercy, love, and courage. Highly recommended.
