(OK) One of those 'civilization in tha making' Ford westerns in wich dancing is as important as settling. Johnson and Carey jr is almost as quiet men as the mormons they accompany. Bond is their master in reverse. The bad ones nad no bad no good (the theatrical troupe) adds colour...

As horse trader Travis (Ben Johnson) aids a Mormon wagon train across harsh open country to a new settlement, Ford recurrently halts the narrative with montages showcasing members of the wago"
