Director: Henry Hathaway

Writer: John Michael Hayes

From novel: The Carpetbaggers by Harold Robbins (character basis)

Music: Alfred Newman

Producer: Henry Hathaway

Keywords: Western

Max Sand, son of a Kiowa maiden and a white man, seeks mortal vengeance against the three gold-seeking men who killed his parents. Fine cast, but the revenge story is too thin for the 2 hours duration of the film; included is strange filler material. Further, thirty-six year old McQueen is not believable as a teenager. Extends a subplot from Harold Robbins' novel The Carpetbaggers.
