Three Jumps Ahead (1923)
Directed by John Ford
Overview
John Ford both directed and wrote the story (based on his published work The Hostage), a typical western romance in which Mix falls for the daughter of an imperiled rancher. This above-average Tom Mix western contains one of the star’s more spectacular stunts—a jump on horseback across the 20-foot Beale’s Cut. Truth be told, the star, who frequently did his own stunt work, was forced to use a double this time
