Gunfighter Clay Hardin (Errol Flynn) returns to San Antonio after recuperating from wounds in Mexico. He's determined to bring evil cattle rustler Roy Stuart (Paul Kelly) to justice. Stuart, in turn, is determined to see Clay dead. To complicate matters there's a pretty singer (Alexis Smith) Clay has fallen for who goes to work at Stuart's saloon. Good chemistry between Flynn and Smith. John Litel is great as Flynn's sidekick; an atypical role for him. Paul Kelly plays the villain well. Robert Shayne, S.Z. Sakall, Robert Barrat, and Victor Francen are among the other quality actors in the cast. Enjoyable, if not overly original, Technicolor western. Sequence in the ruins of the Alamo is a highlight.
