good ol' classic

Despite its leader, Ben Wade (Ford)'s capture, his gang continues to threaten the town.
Dan Evans (Van Heflin), a rancher, is persuaded to take Wade in secret to the nearest town with a railway station to await the train to the court at Yuma.
But once both of them are in the hotel waiting, it is obvious that the secret is out. A battle of wills starts.

Great action. Beautiful cinematography. What a casting ! Loved them all as actors and characters - speaking of them, they have a great loyalty to their leader, which is just amazingly well-shown.

It was relaxing and refreshing to see a black and white picture that was fun to watch, and whose story was well developed.

Well worth watching.
