The followup to Jesse James with Henry Fonda back as Jesse's brother Frank out to avenge the death of Jesse who died at the hands of Bob Ford.
The film starred Henry Fonda and in her first role Gene Tierney. It was directed by Fritz Lang, and anyone looking for some touches of Lang's themes in this film will have to look very hard. This in many ways a strictly by the numbers western with some beautiful technicolor photography.
Lang to put it mildly was not a director that Fonda liked working with, he was very much the European bully on the set.
Still for what it is the film is fairly entertaining, it moves along and is only 90 minutes long.
The film was written by Sam Hellman.
