action

Farmer Jack "Sacramento" Thompson is a retired boxer who is always cross-over with Tom Murdock. His former opponent in the ring has become a bank robber and criminal who still believes that Thompson could only defeat him in the championship fight with low blows. When Jack gets into trouble, he sends his horse to help his son Jim and daughter Evelyn. After some arguments, Murdock has Evelyn kidnapped and threatens to rape her with his gang. He asks $ 20,000 for her release, but plans to lure Jack into hiding and kill him with his bare fists. The plan fails, Murdock dies and they marry three times: Jack gives the saloon owner Rosy, Jim the farmer's daughter Maggie and Evelyn the courageous Ike the yes.

criticism

The lexicon of international films judged the film mildly, the film was an "ironically cheerful adventure spectacle with a lot of applause for male daredevils." Christian Keßler is clearer: "In terms of content, you have to look for this film for a long time until something comes together". The best thing about the film is Micalizzi's music. The Italian colleagues of the Segnalazioni Cinematografiche said that this by-product did not care about originality or credibility, which is why the story also seems banal and the sequence of scenes seems mechanical.

Remarks

The film song Jesus We Love You is interpreted by Annibale , The Story of a Girl by Dana Ghia.
