And the fact that it wasn't filmed in Saskatchewan, so I won't repeat any of it. And I really can't add to the truth that the scenery was incredibly beautiful but the basic chase story of Indians after the Canadian army was kind of boring. The subplot between Shelley Winters and Hugh O'Brian made it a little less boring than it might have been, and the sub-sub plot of the army having to drag a badly wounded Richard Long along for the chase (Alan Ladd would NOT leave him behind) broke up the monotony too (but why in the credits is his character named Abbott when in the film he's called Patrick Scanlon?). The scenery was the only thing that really wanted to make me keep watching. It really was gorgeous and I know it was filmed in Alberta but I've been there and still smile when I remember it.
