Rancher Reynolds has fired his men and hired killers and is now using a crooked land deal to put the other ranchers off their land. Calico finds the reason why when he runs into his old nemesis Porter.
Lon Cardigan (Johnny Mack Brown) and his sweetheart, Bobbie Reynolds (Claire Rocvhelle), are bewildered when her father, Jeff Reynolds (Frank LaRue), fires all of his cowhands and hires a motley gang of thugs. Lon accept's Reynold's offer of the job oh herd boss. It soon becomes apparent that Reynolds is dominated by John Porter (Edward Cassidy) for some reason. A group of squatters informs Lon they are being evicted from their homesteads because Reynolds has , at public auction, bought up the entire strip pf land which they always considered their own under squatter's rights. Because of this, Lon quits Reynolds and sides with the squatters. Calico Haynes, the ranch cook, steals a piece of paper from Porter which shows Reynolds is deeding all of the land he acquired to Porter under some kind of compulsion.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
