Fort Dobbs
1958 · Movie · 93 min. · United States
After killing a man outside Largo, Gar Davis flees into Comanche-controlled territory and is followed by the sheriff and his posse. Spotting the body of a white man killed by a Comanche arrow, Gar switches his jacket for the dead man's and pushes the body over a cliff, hoping the sheriff will presume the body belongs to Gar. After the ruse succeeds, Gar continues on foot until he reaches a ranch house, where he tries to steal a horse, but is intercepted by young Chad, the son of widowed ranch owner Celia Gray, who takes a shot at him and hits him in the head.
