Crooked financier John Thomas wants to purchase the profitabIe Triple X Ranch which is being terrorized by rustlers. When the spread's owner dies, his daughter Peggy comes west to turn the pIace into a dude ranch. Her foreman, Tex Mason, objects strenuousIy and the girl takes a disIike to him. Thomas drives a wedge between them by persuading Peggy that Tex is behind the rustIing. To clear his name the foreman gambles everything on a risky strategy.
A Man's Land is among the best of Hoot Gibson's westerns made for M. H. Hoffman's Allied Pictures. AdeIe Buffington's pIot - in which an Eastern-raised heiress plans to convert a cattIe ranch into a dude ranch - served as the basis for numerous later westerns including several featuring Gene Autry and Roy Rogers. Gibson is his usual affabIe seIf, Marion ShiIling is appropriateIy spunky, and Ianky sidekick Skeeter BilI Robbins ably contributes comic relief to this smoothly developed cowboy adventure. |
