O Laço do Carrasco
Director of Photography

O filme inicia com Matt e seu grupo atacando um carregamento de ouro da União - apesar da guerra ter acabado há um mês. Sabendo que ele e seu pelotão poderiam ser enforcados por assassinato, Matt decide levar alguns reféns. O filme não é tão previsível quanto soa, entretanto a relação de Matt com um dos reféns (Donna Reed) é um pouco diferente. Felizmente, a química interpretativa entre os dois astros, faz a relação deles se destacar na trama. Em termos de ação o filme é fantástico.
