The Bravados

“A Powerful Western Tale of Revenge and Redemption”

Jim Douglass (Gregory Peck) rides into Rio Arriba to watch four men hang for the murder of his wife. When the convicts break loose, he follows them across the border into Mexico, and Henry King sends him after them in the wide, bleached light of CinemaScope. The farther he goes, the less he seems to be seeking justice, and the more hatred is all he has left.
