Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAbout working with Rod Steiger, Glenn Ford said, "Rod, well, in kindness, I think I should say he did a great job with his role. However, the 'Method' got a little too much for some of us, especially the wranglers. Look, Rod won an Academy Award, didn't he? And so did Ernie (Ernest Borgnine), so whatever Rod was doing in his role for 'Jubal' probably worked for him. He was intense, I'll tell you that."
- GoofsAside from Pinky, another character in the movie, Doctor Grant played by actor Robert Burton, was also wearing a modern day wristwatch on his left wrist. The scene was when the doctor had announced that the rancher's wife was already dead and that it's all Pinky's doing.

Featured review
A great and sadly under-valued western
Othello out West. Delmar Daves' great and unjustly neglected western finds Glenn Ford's title character falling prey to ranch-hand Rod Steiger's Iago-like jealously when Ernest Borgnine's Othello-like father figure picks him as his foreman and surrogate son. Throw in the machinations of wife Valerie French who has the hots for Ford and it isn't difficult for Steiger to convince Borgnine that there's something going on.
If Shakespeare's play is the blueprint, Daves' film is suitably complex in its own right and if Steiger displays a tendency to chew the scenery as he was wont to do, both Borgnine and Ford are outstanding, with Ford in particular proving something of a revelation. He has a terrific scene with Felicia Farr in which he describes his appalling childhood and how it made him the man he is. It's also magnificently photographed in cinemascope by Charles Lawton Jr; the exterior scenes are often breathtaking while the interiors use the widescreen to superb spatial effect.
