Across thousands of miles from the Missouri Breaks to the Canadian River, from the Rockies to the high plains, both joined together in a search for their sister, Patricia, still a captive of the Cheyenne.

Don't waste your time

The acting was atrocious. The ending was as hokey as can be. How was this film ever made, an embarrassment to westerns. They tried to make the ending climatic and heartfelt - what a joke and laughable at best. The hanging, the chopping down of the tree - wtf. I wish I never saw this - I'm scarred for life. Literally the guy at the end of the movie is about to be hung and he's reading a cheesy poem that is ridiculous. If you have 2 hours of time to kill don't waste it on this. If there was a zero star I would have selected that. I cant believe there are those that rated this movie more than one star.
