Palance's black panther like acting that made the movie. Without him it would have been a good, but not a special movie. And it was Alan Ladd's best performance..
Without those two, it would have been an average Western.
allen is right..PALANCE is the epitome of evil..finest portrayal of a gunfighter in moition picture history..palance had only 18 lines in this movie still was nominated for an academy award..
He is so evil the dog is afraid of him before he even enters the room.

the dissolve is visually memorable.. It implies that Wilson (Palance) is impatient to get a killing job done . The dog sensing evil too is brilliant.
