Dal romanzo The Stars in Their Courses di Harry Brown. Uno sceriffo che s'è dato al bere per una pena d'amore deve far fronte a un allevatore tanto ricco quanto prepotente. Si fa dare una mano da un suo vecchio aiutante, da uno sbarbatello e da un arzillo vecchietto. Il penultimo film di Hawks – prima di Rio Lobo (1970) – è una variazione sui temi e i personaggi di Un dollaro d'onore (1959), basata su una sceneggiatura scritta da Leigh Brackett, sua collaboratrice fin dai tempi di Il grande sonno (1946). Non è né una ripetizione né una parodia, ma semmai un'elegia sui vecchi tempi, sorvegliata dall'angelo custode dell'ironia. Per Hawks anche gli eroi invecchiano, ma lo sanno e non nascondono le proprie infermità dell'anima e del corpo.
