Fort Yuma
A Salute to Sam
SATURDAYS IN AUGUST
About
An act of violence at a remote desert outpost sparks a volatile chain reaction when an Apache chief is killed by a settler, leaving his son determined to retaliate. As a supply column travels toward Fort Yuma, the fort’s commander grows suspicious of the scout guiding them, fearing betrayal from within as much as attack from without.
Starring Peter Graves, Sally Forrest, and Douglas Kennedy, the film combines frontier danger with personal conflict. Graves delivers a solid turn as a commander forced to make difficult decisions under constant threat, while the supporting cast adds tension and urgency to the unfolding events. With crisp pacing and dramatic confrontations, this Western keeps its focus firmly on survival and leadership.
