“A femme fatale [baker] who overcharges for her buns” — bravo!

Saw this aeons ago, and have little memory outside of having liked it. I’ve always been drawn to noir-western hybrids. More, I dare say, than to many normative examples of prairie Americana.

Kind of agree, which may be what I like best in Anthony Mann’s westerns.
