The Westerner

In the rough frontier town of Vinegarroon, Texas, self-appointed Judge Roy Bean, known for his ruthless hangings, forms an unlikely bond with saddle tramp Cole Harden, who challenges Bean's harsh stance against homesteaders. When Jane-Ellen Matthews defends Cole at the bar, insisting he's no horse thief, Cole empties his coins for drinks for the jury, delaying his hanging by two weeks. Amidst this reprieve, Cole finds himself entangled in a brutal range war between cattlemen and homesteaders. As tensions rise, the arrival of Lily Langtry, the renowned actress and Judge Bean's obsession, promises to stir further chaos in the unforgiving Texas landscape.
