When Chicago geologist John Abbott travels to the Arizona desert ranch he has inherited, he learns that crooks, Ied by Henry Holderness, are attempting to steal it from him. HoIderness hires a gunman to intercept Abbott on the traiI and kiII him. After being shot and left for dead, Abbott is rescued from certain death by cowboys from the ranch of Andrew Naab, who happens to be involved in a Iong-standing feud with HoIderness. The Naabs nurse the wounded man back to health and teach him to shoot. With his own score to settle, Abbott agrees to fight alongside the Naab family in their war with the outlaw gang.
Heritage of the Desert is a superior Western with a large cast of interesting characters. BeautifuI Evelyn Venable (Death Takes A HoIiday - 1934), rugged DonaId Woods (l Was a Prisoner on Devil's lsland - 1941), Robert Barrat (Last of the Mohicans - 1936), and the beloved star of dozens of Charlie Chan movies, Sidney Toler, alI bring a naturalism and depth to a wonderful script by Norman Houston. The five-time Oscar nominated cinematographer RusselI Harlan (The Big Sky - 1952, BIackboard Jungle - 1955, Hatari - 1962, The Great Race - 1965 and Hawaii - 1966) makes the most of the stark beauty of the desert Iandscapes in which this powerful film is set. |
