This is the last film Gibson would make with his wife, Eilers, who after the release of her own starring vehicle, BAD GIRL (1931), became for a while a bigger star than her then-husband. In the film, Gibson plays a man who returns to his hometown to find the murderer of his brother. He suspects the bank president, but for fear he will get others in trouble, and for lack of evidence, he pretends he is scared. He incurs the wrath of Eilers, who wants nothing to do with a coward. At night he makes his search for evidence and becomes mistaken for a Spanish bandit. He finally brings the murderer to justice and wins the girl, who did not want anything to do with him because she thought he was a coward. Eilers went on to three more marriages after Gibson and finally retired from pictures in 1951. leave a comment
