The cast credits in the original release are just the same as they appear on IMDb, with Dean Jagger in first position, Robert Mitchum in third position, and Rhonda Fleming uncredited. When the film was retitled and re-released in 1949, Jagger's and Mitchum's positions were reversed, with Mitchum now in first position and Jagger in third position.
