Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDue to a studio clerical error, Alan Ladd was credited for an appearance in this film as an "Inspector". He does not, in fact, appear in it and there is no "Inspector" involved in the story. However, his name is included in 13th position in the credited cast published by Weekly Variety 16 March 1938, and this information was erroneously picked up by the American Film Institute Catalog of Feature Films 1931-1939. By the time it was re-released, Ladd had become a prominent and popular player, so his name was likewise prominently displayed, often receiving equal billing right along with John Wayne, not only on all the re-titled advertising material, but also in most television program schedules once telecasts began.

- Quotes
Tom Fillmore: Why don't you get married and settle down? Why, you're running around like a maverick without a brand on.
Dare Rudd: Well, I don't like branding. It hurts in the wrong place.

Has a different feel to it
After six non-western B-movies, John Wayne returns to the saddle for what would be the beginning of the final chapter of his B-movie career. Rather than the standard formulaic B-western where Duke is the known hero who will get the girl, here his cowboy hero status is in question – he has to chase the girl and he's not exactly the squeaky clean character we have always known him as up to this point in his filmography. The story is by acclaimed western novel writer Zane Grey which helps explain how this is different from all that came before it for the Duke.
