A western in which a Union soldier leads a group of women in defending their Texan town from an Indian attack.

Considering the premise and how most of the major cast is female, the Bechdel test results for this are very disappointing. 99% of the interaction between the women consists of a tough widow commanding the others, with no verbal response from them. The mere couple of actual conversations were all about men.
