James Coburn and Lee Van Cleef acting together, pretty cool. The only other time was the film 'Ride Lonesome' (1959).
Tom Drake, who plays Randall, the man who has the cough in prison, is most famous to many movie fans as John Truett. He is "the boy next door" who Esther Smith (Judy Garland) sings about in the 1944 MGM musical MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS.
