Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Richard Dix played Wyatt Earp here after headlining 1931's Cimarron — a massive fall from Oscar-nominated prestige to poverty row Westerns.
This was one of six Wyatt Earp films released in the 1940s alone, proving Hollywood's obsession with sanitizing the violent gunslinger into a noble lawman.
