Crying Boy     1. Total votes: vote now!   2. Rank: (why vote?)
powered by AFI  Texas cattlemen Steve Logan and Jim Caldwell
bring their herd into the boom town of Abilene, Texas. Steve
immediately falls for gambler Claire, even though she attempts
to cheat him at cards. Steve then learns that, while cattle
sells for twenty-three dollars a head in Kansas City, it sells
for only eleven dollars a head in Abilene, as an unknown middle
man controls the city's cattle market. When an Eastern cattle
buyer complains about the situation, he is immediately killed.
In an attempt to flush out the murderous combine leader, Steve
agrees to buy trail boss Courtwright's herd at a higher price
over Jim's objections. After Courtwright is killed in an ambush,
Steve and Jim ride out to his camp and meet his boss,
cattlewoman Chris Prentise.
