(1925, updated 5/27/24) William S. Hart, J. Gordon Russell, Barbara Bedford. Partly in sound! We have scored the entire land rush sequence in sound with full sound effects! You'll swear it was really filmed that way...wow. The rest of the film has a beautiful music score. Thought by many to be the greatest silent western ever. Bill is a rugged cowboy out to stake a claim in the Cherokee Strip land rush. A pair of no-gooders tries to keep him from his claim and have him falsely arrested as a "sooner." Will he get out in time? The epic land rush scene is still an eye-opener. A great. great movie and true silent western classic. ALSO: We've included Hart's "screen farewell," filmed in 1940 as an extra. Way cool. Music score, from 16mm.
