In Old Oklahoma

DramaWestern102 min

As Oklahoma oil country heats up, a cowboy drifter lands in the middle of a fight over land, money, and control of a boomtown changing by the day. What begins as a rough frontier rivalry turns into a larger battle between settlers, speculators, and powerful interests trying to seize what lies under the ground. John Wayne is at the center of the conflict as a man forced to pick sides while staying one step ahead of shifting alliances and open hostility. Martha Scott appears as a woman whose own loyalties and position are tied to the struggle, as personal ties and frontier politics collide against the push toward statehood.
