Screening on Film
Directed by Budd Boetticher.
With andolph Scott, Nancy Gates, Claude Akins.

Comanche Station features Scott as Jefferson Cody, a man who has spent years unsuccessfully searching for his wife, who was kidnapped by the Comanches. Cody manages to rescue a Senator's wife (also kidnapped by the Comanches), and attempts to bring her back to civilization to collect the reward.

Burt Kennedy's script is at turns melancholy and humorous, and provides a fitting tone for this final collaboration between Scott and Boetticher.
