In Texas, gunfighter Brazos Kane (Randolph Scott) decides to lay down his guns for good and rides out to visit his best friend -- only to witness his murder. When Brazos takes the body to the nearby ranch of the powerful Banner (Griff Barnett), the rancher accuses him of the murder. Brazos leaves Banner's daughter, Bess (Barbara Britton), a vital piece of evidence in the crime, and then must evade Banner and a crooked sheriff as he reluctantly takes up arms to prove his innocence.

deke p 1947! RANDOLP SCOTT!! BARBARA BRITTON!! BRUCE CABOT!! AMAZING long fight scene featuring scott almost getting trampled by a Horse for a couple of minutes. 4.3.2021 the movie channel Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review ogn d Was Scott gay? Sorry, but before I read about that possibility I thought he was the greatest Western actor. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Forgettable Western riddled with cliches and a pretty uninteresting story to boot. Not one of Randolph Scott's better efforts! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
