Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of a brief 1970s wave of female gunfighter films including 'The Belle Starr Story' and 'Cat Ballou,' though this one leans hardest into exploitation aesthetics.
Welch insisted on doing her own gun spinning after weeks of training; you can actually see her fumble once and they kept it because it looked more authentic.
