Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
In this romantic drama, Austin Ruth (Andrew Prine) is a drifter who goes from rodeo to rodeo. He gets a ride to his next rodeo from Chase Lawrence (Gilmer McCormick), a girl from an upper-class background. She is avoiding her family and has recently dropped out of college. Austin and Chase are attracted to each other, despite their superficially antagonistic initial behavior. Because of her, Austin is motivated to try to prove something in the upcoming rodeo competition.
