One of Peckinpahs shorter features which was quite nice. Very much just a ~vibes~ kinda movie. But I love Steve McQueen so I'm all for it

This was a neat follow up to The Lusty Men that I watched earlier. Similar stories in a way but definitely different moods and endings.
Would love to rewatch in good quality one day!
