Twitter Facebook Google+Overview
Searching for a doctor who can help him get his son to speak again—the boy hadn’t uttered a word since he saw his mother die in the fire that burned down the family home—a Confederate veteran finds himself facing a 30-day jail sentence when he’s unfairly accused of starting a brawl in a small town. A local woman pays his fine, providing that he works it off on her ranch. He soon finds himself involved in the woman’s struggle to keep her ranch from a local landowner who wants it—and whose sons were responsible for the man being framed for the fight.

Viewing Notes
Did not enjoy this one despite my fondness for Olivia de Havilland and Harry Dean Stanton. Alan Ladd has not done it for me and I really dislike him as the father to this mute adopted boy. Stanton is good being an asshole you wanna punch in the face.
