Cow Country

Edmund O'Brien makes a rare Wild West appearance as Ben Anthony, an independent teamster caught in the middle of a Texas range war. The straight-shooting Anthony runs a freight business in a hard-hit community of cattlemen. As the local ranchers face off against ruthless bankers and opportunists that want to drive them off their land, Anthony finds he has close ties to both sides of the struggle -- childhood friend (and secret cad) Harry (Bob Lowry) and Harry's fiancee (and Ben's secret love) Linda (Helen Westcott). Peggie Castle adds some extra spice as whip-cracking cowgirl Melba Sykes who is full of scorned fury.
