Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaVirginia Mayo was originally slated to play the lead female role in this movie, but director Budd Boetticher ended up giving the part to Karen Steele, with whom he was romantically involved. Mayo still received second billing.
- GoofsThis takes place during the Civil War. And typical of movies about the period, everyone has a cartridge belt and pistol instead of the 'cap and ball' available at the time.
- Quotes
Rod Miller: [going into the stage stop] Well, they tell me they got a good man runnin' this place.
Capt. John Hayes: [laconically] Let you know after I drink his coffee.

Featured review
Probable a notorious minor work of Scott & Boetticher partnership!!!
I've been considered Budd Boetticher one of great western director on cinema industry, but Westbound is a point outside the curve, quite sure, an ordinary plot, predicable and senseless, having in the beauty Virginia Mayo as the first waste, she was flouted, just few laconic scenes, Randolph plays Captain Hayes who was a former manager of Overland stage line in the pastime, his main assignment enforced by the Union Army is restore the safety of stage line steadily undermined by southern on Colorado territory, he arrives in town accompanied by a cripple soldier Rod Miller (Michael Dante) who had cut your lefty arm infected by gangrene and waived of the war, often blaming himself as a half man, supported by his young wife Jeannie Miller (Barbara Steele), on the Julesburgh's town the rich man Clay Puttman (Andrew Duggan) no longer wants make part of the Overland line, he resigned due has strong southern roots, although has in mind finds an easy way to stopping the shipment gold thru the stagecoach line from California, nonetheless he has a dangerous gang behind leading by an unsavory assassin Mace (Michael Paté) who have his own rules, uncumbering his blind boss, a minor movie from Boetticher, for your notable relevance 7 out 10!!
