Synopsis:
John Wayne was at the peak of his box office popularity when he made this rousing western with the acclaimed director Raoul Walsh. Based on a true story, Wayne plays Bob Seton, an illiterate cowboy from Texas who wins over the people of Lawrence, Kansas in the dark days before the outbreak of the American Civil War. Walter Pidgeon co-stars as Will Cantrell, a merciless and ambitious ex-school teacher who bands together guerrilla groups and undertakes ruthless raids, pillaging the surrounding countryside. While endeavouring to crush Cantrell and his desperados, Wayne is also intent on winning the heart of gorgeous Mary McCloud, played by Claire Trevor.
This is John Wayne at his rugged best - fighting lawlessness and corruption - a champion of the underdog.
