Duel in the Sun was David O. Selznick’s 1946 attempt to do a western in the Gone With the Wind style, an epic western.

There’s plenty of material for melodrama here and it’s melodrama we get, in a gloriously overheated style.

It's a sex melodrama and it ran into huge censorship problems which weakened the movie.

But it's better than its reputation would suggest. I liked it.
