Deep in the Ozark Mountains, farmer Springfield Davis (Lionel Barrymore) loves to hunt foxes with his trusted dog, Bugle Ann. But a shadow falls over their sojourns in the woods when Jacob Terry (Dudley Digges) vows to shoot any and all dogs that come near his sheep. The resulting feud between the two men becomes more heated when Springfield's son (Eric Linden) starts romancing Jacob's daughter (Maureen O'Sullivan) -- and reaches a fever pitch when Bugle Ann disappears.

A pleasant, bucolic sketch, refreshingly real. Go to Full Review Ann Ross Maclean's Magazine 10/02/2019
I thought the idea rather far-fetched in spite of all the talking that was done to make it convincing. In fact, the talking was the worst feature of the picture. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
