Movie Haiku:With time on our side, this modest Western melodrama stands tall as the best of the Mann/Stewart collaborations. Stewart, the mysterious man from Laramie (Wyoming) is driven by demons that are slowly revealed as he digs deep into the corrupt heart of a southwestern backwater. Excellent character depth all around.
