It’s possible there was some misunderstanding about the details! Ted Post directed Yuma, and Charles Wallace wrote the screenplay. The cast includes Clint Walker, Barry Sullivan, Kathryn Hays, Edgar Buchanan, Morgan Woodward, and John Kerr. George Duning composed the music, and John Stephens handled the cinematography. Walker plays Marshal Dave Harmon, a straightforward lawman tasked with bringing order to Yuma Territory. He immediately encounters the King brothers, which leads to friction with their father, Arch King (Woodward). The story is recognizable—something most Western enthusiasts will have encountered before. This was made as a TV movie and intended to be the first episode of a series; it’s clear the budget wasn't substantial, but there’s some strong star power on display (Sullivan and Buchanan are comforting figures for those who enjoy Westerns), and a great deal is packed into the ninety-one minute length. Clint Walker makes an imposing figure, portraying a character that’s simple to root for; he’s not just tough and good looking, but also displays qualities reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes! The standard town-taming plot incorporates issues surrounding the Indian Beef treaty—or rather, its absence in this instance—the deceptive methods employed by Raiders and their crimes, plus a charmingly irritating child and an attractive woman who orbits the hero. It’s not groundbreaking, but it features solid performances, pleasing location scenery (Old Tuscon), and well-executed action sequences (the movie begins with a very impressive stagecoach stunt). Naturally, for those who appreciate Walker's work, there’s a definite reason to watch it. It earns a 6/10.
