Synopsis: You'd know that ambling gait if you saw it through a sandstorm. You'd recognize the voice if you heard it from the back of a crowded room. Twenty-five-year-old John Wayne was not yet a household name when he headlined the second of six Warner Bros. films he made in the early 1930s. But the traits and style that would shape his heroic persona were well on display. He portrays lawman John Steele, whose New Mexico Territory assignment pits him against a thieving cattle baron (Noah Beery). Hooves pound. Lead flies. Equine costar Duke proves to be as clever as any dozen deputies.
