From about three minutes into this movie right until the end, I was struck by how incredibly stupid it was. George Hamilton was supposedly this mean, driven warrior who refuses to admit that he lost the war. But he comes across as a shrill bully who's likely to cry if he doesn't get his way. His character raped Emily because the South was raped and now she would know what his country went through. Glenn Ford was too old for his role and acted like he was asleep. The way he kept leading his men into ambush was moronic. And there's a scene where a guy shoots one bullet at a wagon, and not only the horse but the entire wagon falls over.
