James Darren, Edward Platt, Kathryn Grant, Tab Hunter
Widower Lee Hackett (Van Heflin), a cattle rancher who is a product of the old west, tries to bring up his two sons, Ed (Tab Hunter) and Davy (James Darren), in his image, but Ed is wild and unruly. The two brothers are both attracted to Clee Chouard (Kathryn Grant) but she prefers Davy. Ed's efforts to outshine his father and brother and everyone else lead him into a career of a gunfighter, and a confrontation with his father.—Les Adams
