Black Saddle (TV Series) Client: Steele (1959) User Reviews

A Woman's Perspective

[mitchrmp · 8/10 · 7 December 2012]

Marshal Scott brings in three men who he suspects held up a stage. He puts them all in jail, but one of them, Bill Steele, recognizes the black saddle on Clay's horse. He wants to talk to Clay, but before Clay and Marshal Scott can get back over there two outlaws try to beat Bill Steele up. Clay soon figures out the truth and sets out to prove it knowing that he could very well be killed for doing so!

There were a good cast of characters in this episode. Besides Peter Breck, we have Warren Oates and James Corburn. Anyone who's watched westerns on TV knows these two faces very well.

This was a very interesting story. I can't reveal too much about it and ruin the surprise, but let's say Bill Steele has an interesting reason for being there.

In the end, two men are killed and one injured and arrested. One is set free in more ways then one!

Marshall Scott arrest three men for a hold up but Bill Steele (Scott Forbes) claims he was never part of the other two guys. Niles (James Coburn) and Barnes.

Steele decides to get Clay has his lawyer but he has ulterior motives for hiring Clay.

Steele holds Clay responsible for the death of his younger brother. Clay claimed self defence. He plans to get revenge on Clay.

First Steels upsets the other two men by stopping them breaking out of jail as they easily overpower deputy Simms (Warren Oates.)

Clay finds himself defending a man that would come to kill him if he manages to get him off.

There is a showdown between Clay and Steele with a twist. At least Clay is made to earn his fee in this one.
