When you lose a bet where you've staked your horse, you probably don't even realize what it could mean for you. A story about how one honorable man finds himself in a situation where he must save not only himself but also a woman. He's up against three ruffians, and he doesn't have much to defend himself against them. A western brilliantly crafted as an intimate drama. Moreover, everything is depicted in beautiful colors. A fairly gritty film, rougher than most classic westerns, like those with John Wayne. It's not driven by violence, but rather by the couple's hopeless situation.
