A rather unknown 1971 movie with James Stewart, Ann Baxter, George Kennedy, Kurt Russell and several other character actors. I had never seen it before. This is a great movie. Ann Baxter may have had her best roll in this one. I didn't even realize the character was her for several minutes. Then I recognized her voice. I mean she was that good. It's about three ex cons who just got out of prison back in the 30's. Very good. I'm I watched this one. I always enjoy Stewart movies but this one was special. Great storyline, Kurt Russell was very young, great acting, etc.

It is hard to believe Kurt Russell has been around that long.

I saw this one a long time ago. As you noted, great cast. George Kennedy was living in the Boise area when he passed away.
