Dramatizes Walter Van Tilburg Clark's novel about the lynching of three innocent men in the West and the effect of the deed on the men who took the law into their own hands. Stars Henry Fonda, Dana Andrews, Anthony Quinn and Jane Darwell.
Art Croft (Harry Morgan) and Gil Carter (Henry Fonda) ride into Bridger's Wells, Nevada in 1885. Art and Gil are suspected to be rustlers because they have rarely been seen in town. The townspeople form a posse to pursue the murderers, who they believe are cattle rustlers. A judge tells the posse that it must bring the suspects back for trial, and that its formation by a deputy (the sheriff being out of town) is illegal.
