Garden of Evil still

Garden of Evil is a 1954 American CinemaScope Western film directed by Henry Hathaway about three somewhat disreputable 19th-century soldiers of fortune, played by Gary Cooper as an ex-lawman, Richard Widmark as a gambler, and Cameron Mitchell as a bounty hunter, who, along with Vicente, played by Víctor Manuel Mendoza, are hired by a woman (Susan Hayward) to rescue her husband (Hugh Marlowe), who is trapped in a collapsed mine. Rita Moreno appears at the beginning of the film as a Mexican cantina singer/dancer. Director Hathaway took special pains to use the stunning vistas of the Mexican locations to show off the CinemaScope screen dimensions to best effect.
