James Arness reprises his role as Matt Dillon, the U.S. Marshal he portrayed in the 1955–75 TV series, in this film. Dillon pursues a renegade Apache named Wolf, who has captured his daughter. To secure her release, Dillon assists two sons of Apache chief Geronimo by helping them escape from the fort stockade, offering them as a trade. He is aided in his mission by an Army scout named Chalk Brighton.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
