During the Civil War, Union officer Capt. Roper (William Holden) kept an unwavering eye on the Confederate prisoners housed in his Arizona stockade--until distracted by beautiful visitor Carla Forrester (Eleanor Parker). He’d find too late that she was there to spring her ex-beau (John Forsythe) and other POWs...and, thanks to angry Mescalero Apaches, no one might return from the ensuing manhunt. John Sturges’ arresting Western saga co-stars William Demarest, Polly Bergen, William Campbell. 98 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital Surround stereo; Subtitles: English, French; theatrical trailer.
