The film, directed by John Sturges, starred Yul Brynner, Eli Wallach and Steve McQueen, plus an array of supporting figures which included such future stars as Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, and James Coburn. In 2013, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congressas being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
