Hector discovers an ancient scroll which holds the secret of how to beat a dangerous warrior in battle. He is unaware that the warrior will soon be after him to find out what it is. This movie was the first of three collaborations between director Sam Peckinpah and actor Robert Ryan. Ryan played a dour, old gunslinger of a character in the same genre as Hombre, for which Peckinpah had previously directed the U.S. remake.
Just like most of Peckinpah's work, this movie has some great performances, but it's not very memorable in any way. A few years later, Peckinpah directed the similar-themed action film The Wild Bunch (1969), and Ryan played a supporting role in that film, too.
