O Preço de um Homem

Angry James Stewart is out to get killer Robert Ryan and claim his reward. On his way he meets up with 2 strangers - Millard Mitchell, an old prospector looking for his first strike and Ralph Meeker, an ex army lieutenant. Both agree to help him for a share of the bounty, but can they be trusted.

A terrific, character lead study of 5 people, including Janet Leigh, who all have individual greed and obsessional issues. This is probably the best of the Mann / Stewart westerns with Stewart giving an often frightening dramatic performance and with exceptional support from the other 4. It is a first rate character piece where the action, good though it is, comes second to the characters such that all of them are given enough time and script to really develop.
