Budd Boetticher's last feature, this film also marks the final appearance by legendary WW2 veteran Audie Murphy in motion pictures before his untimely death in 1971. Keenly reviewed by the New York Times and Roger Ebert in 1982, Ebert called A Time For Dying "the damndest, confoundingest Western you can imagine". This version was transferred from a 35mm negative and remastered.
