TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The trumpeter in the cantina was Raphaël Mendez, who in the 1950s was considered by many professional musicians to be one of the finest trumpet players in the world, if not the best.

The script is based on the memoirs of Frank Harris, chronicling his first trail drive as a greenhorn from Chicago.

Jack Lemmon was one of the actors considered for the role of Butch Cassidy in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969), based on his performance in this film.

This film was later a central part of the plot of the Dennis the Menace (1959) episode Dennis the Menace: Dennis Goes to the Movies (1959).

George Duning's soundtrack uses themes from traditional western and Mexican folk tunes.

Popular Dialogues

"Charlie, Trailhand: I wouldn't go in there for a bottle of whiskey and a redhead to pour it."

"Wagon Driver: It beats me how women can go for you cowboys. Charlie, Trailhand: Oh, yeah. Women like the smell of a horse on a man. That makes them giggle. Wagon Driver: Well, the smell of a horse on me never did me no good. Just makes them get up and move away. Charlie, Trailhand: Maybe you're associating with the wrong horses."
