Very cool movie. Even after so many years, the picture looks at a high level. Director Michael Ritchey made a picture of relevance that will probably always be, as unfortunate as it sounds.

Chicago and Kansas, all very clearly and lucidly shown, the whole aspect of the slave trade before the eyes of the viewer. For its time the picture is just a slice of time. Visually the picture looks gorgeous. Most of the screen time of the tape takes place in Kansas, the showdown and memorable scenes, against the background of nature, make the strongest impression. Scenes with a combine harvester in a wheat field and a shootout in the field, against the background of sunflowers growing on it, will remain in the memory for a long time. All tense scenes are seasoned with musical splendor from Lalo Shifrin. It impresses and excites.

Actor’s confrontation, in the face of the main characters, Lee Marin vs. Gene Hackman, is just indescribably powerful and coolly done and shown. Actors of top level. Each with his own distinct charismatic trait. The enjoyment and pleasure of their acting is guaranteed. Each of them in their role is flawless and inimitable. Well and the first appearance on the screen charming Sissy Spacek is worth noting. Beautiful and brightest actress.

The strongest movie on a topical and heavy theme, with a first-class cast.
