For his third feature outing, director Sydney Pollack helmed this comedic western starring (Burt Lancaster) as fur trapper Joe Bass. While heading for the trading post for his pay after a successful hunting season, Bass runs into a band of Kiowa Indians, who offer to trade the educated slave Joseph (Ozzie Davis) for Bass's furs.

But they may not make it south of the border, as the Indians have regrouped and are on their trail with plans to take back the furs. Matthew Tobey, Rovi
