Introduction
Nicholas Ray’s mesmerisingly strange western takes the stock idea of ranchers trying to keep out newcomers and turns it into a heady allegorical fable about xenophobic persecution centred on the sexual rivalries of saloon owner Vienna (Crawford) and repressed, vengeful and well-named harpy Emma Smalls (McCambridge). It’s a splendid, elemental drama ripe for feminist, Freudian and Marxist interpretation.
