A Comedy, Until The Conflict

William S. Hart is a fun-loving ranch owner. He rolls cigarettes like Roscoe Arbuckle and takes part in the daily lynching of the Chinese cook. One pleasure he reserves to himself is running nesters off his range. After he amiably threatens one, the fellow ups and sells his land to Margery Wilson. When Hart returns to the farm, he is dumbfounded by the new owner and gradually wins her to be his bride. When William Fairbanks shows up, Hart is delighted. He thinks Fairbanks is Miss Wilson's half brother. In truth, they are lovers; she thought him dead. They plan to run off before the wedding.

Hart plays with his themes of the good bad man, and tries a few gags, but of course, he is primarily a dramatic actor, and while he may act goofy or malevolent as the situation calls for, the audience is busy waiting for his redemption. It's not among his best movies, but it's always satisfying to see a Hart film that's new to me.
