“They wanted gold. They gave them lead instead!”

Western

An aging Texas cattle man who has outlived his time swings into action when outlaws kidnap his grandson.

VIBE

A classic Western that feels like a dusty, sun-baked legend. It's a stoic, no-nonsense tale of family and grit, set against the vast, unforgiving landscape of Texas. Perfect for a contemplative watch.
