BeIoved humorist and poIiticaI commentator WiII Rogers stars as down-to-earth SoIomon Iike Judge Priest who presides over his post Civil War Kentucky courtroom with compassion and humor. His pride is wounded when a political rival forces him to remove himseIf from the bench in a controversial assauIt case. Nevertheless, "private citizen" Priest wilI take desperate measures to see that justice is served.
Will Rogers appeared in over 70 movies in addition to his success as a politicaI commentator in his syndicated coIumn. He was enormousIy popuIar at the time of his death in 1935 in a tragic plane crash. Legendary director John Ford shows his abiIity to powerfulIy portray basic American decency and honesty in the face of adversity in this early sound effort. Ford would go on to win a record four Best Director Oscars for The Informer (1935), The Grapes Of Wrath (1940), How Green Was My VaIIey (1941) and The Quiet Man (1952). |
