New Frontier

DramaWestern57 min

After helping convince settlers to trade their land for property that’s secretly worthless, the Three Mesquiteers realize they’ve been drawn into a land swindle that could devastate local ranchers. John Wayne is one of the trio, riding alongside Ray Corrigan and Raymond Hatton as they try to stop the deal before it’s too late. Jennifer Jones also appears, billed here as Phylis Isley, in her film debut. The plot moves through false promises, shady speculators, and a last-minute scramble after the Mesquiteers are captured before they can warn the people they’ve misled.
