Victor Mature as Jed gets to flex both his muscles and his acting abilities in this gripping Western by Anthony Mann. Notable for some excellent action sequences and its stunning Mexican locations, The Last Frontier is an archetypal cavalry-versus-Indians saga as three primitive frontiersmen are glad to accept an offer to become Indian scouts for a cavalry fort. But tension arises between the fort's colonel and Jed when the frontiersman displays his clear liking for the officer's wife, Corinna.
