Not the most famous western directed by John Sturges. But the 'search for hidden money/gold' theme usually makes a film more appealing to the audience.

I think you're right on this one, MI6; not a great Sturges film, but a pretty damn good one. The funny part is, I don't remember the tree in it. I'm basing my guess on the costume of the foreground character.
Taylor and Widmark classic. Don't remember the tree there but the Spanish title was "Tesoro del ahorcado" so unless am very wrong think is that one , say so by law and Jack agrees.
This is the one where the climactic standoff is in that deserted mining town or something? It's been years since I've seen it but I remember it for being my introduction to the great Richard Widmark.
According to an 29 April 1958 Hollywood Reporter news item, THE LAW AND JAKE WADE marked the first time a major film studio used a "canned soundtrack" for background music. The item stated that composer Bronislau Kaper had begun a score for the film, but due to the musicians' strike, M-G-M purchased a full-length recording from the library of Capitol Records and used it for the film's music track.
