Review :
Thoroughly engaging adventure tale...
In a small village at the base of the Alpine mountains, a greedy young man--tired of living poorly with his elderly brother on a sheep farm--talks his sibling into climbing one of the highest peaks to raid a doomed Indian aircraft of its gold. Engrossing story from Henri Troyat's novel is genuinely beautiful to behold in color-saturated Vista-Vision. Critics at the time complained about the interspersing of on-location footage with studio shots, yet poor Spencer Tracy (already in his golden years by this point) seems to be pressed to the breaking point regardless! As the scowling mercenary, callow Robert Wagner is one-note obstinate; however, Tracy's work is so fluid, so compassionate and believable, one is caught up in this saga despite the picture's weaker attributes. Expository early scenes and other minor characters are practically irrelevant, though cinematographer Franz F. Planer captures it all with astute grace. **1/2 from ****
