"A blazing tale of clash and combat ..."

I've been sitting on this one for awhile because it's developed into my favorite Richard Dix movie, and I wanted to be sure I did it proper justice. Well, it's playing on Turner Classic Movies late on Thursday night (2:45 am Eastern Time, actually early Friday morning, US schedule) as part of an entire evening of Richard Dix movies that I'm quite excited about—and which you'll surely hear a bit more about from me later this week!
I wish TCM had planted it in the 8 or 10 pm time slot, but hey, I'm just thrilled to see they're playing it. Really hope this gem discovers several new fans by Friday morning!
While I won't guarantee that you'll have the new review in Thursday morning's edition of Classic Movie Daily, I am going to do all I can to have it posted to the site by late Thursday night (And I will guarantee a TCM preview in your mail Thursday morning, so you'll have another alert before it plays).
If you can't wait until it plays later this week you can pick up a copy of the manufactured-on-demand DVD-R direct from the WB Shop, or, for even speedier delivery, can grab it on Amazon HERE.
I agree with the sentiments of this Carroll Daily Herald headline:
