The last collaboration between Budd Boetticher and Randolph Scott brings the Ranown westerns full circle, reexamining many of the films’ key themes and tropes: greed, loyalty, hidden motivations, and the fine moral line that separates heroes from villains. Scott stars as the enigmatic Jefferson Cody, who rescues a woman kidnapped by Comanches for reasons that may have nothing to do with the bounty offered for her return. But before he can bring her to safety, he’ll have to contend with the dangers of the Comanche warpath and a trio of bounty hunters who have designs on the reward.

NOTE: The first three films in the collection (The Tall T, Decision at Sundown, Buchanan Rides Alone) were released on a single disc and are noticeably softer than the two-per-disc Ride Lonesome and Comanche Station, which fare better with 60% higher bitrate.
