The Desert Trail (1935)

In the dusty aftermath of a heated rodeo, John Scott, a rugged star of the arena, triumphantly collects his hard-earned prize money. The celebration is cut short when the unsuspecting Official is brutally robbed and murdered in cold blood by the sinister Pete. In a swift and shadowy twist, Pete cunningly frames John and his rough-and-tumble gambler friend, Kansas Charlie, setting the stage for a relentless manhunt. With the echo of their names on the lips of every townsperson, the two unsuspecting fugitives make a desperate dash for a fresh start in the anonymity of a distant town, Poker City, where they adopt new identities. Their hopes for a quiet life are quickly shattered as Pete arrives, his finger pointed in their direction, landing them in the cold, iron grip of the law. Behind the scenes, Pete's reluctant accomplice, tortured by guilt, knows the truth of their innocence. He clandestinely orchestrates their escape from jail, setting them on a dangerous trail of revenge. With their freedom regained, John and Kansas Charlie relentlessly pursue Pete, their sights set on a confession to clear their tarnished names. "The Desert Trail" is a high-stakes tale of injustice and redemption, where the echoes of gunfire are drowned out by the unwavering quest for truth. This 1935 classic is a wild ride that takes you from the roaring rodeo to shadowy jail cells and the perilous pathways of Poker City, a journey that promises to keep you on the edge of your seat.
