Synopsis
In 1900, unscrupulous timber baron Jim Fallon plans to take advantage of a new law and make millions off California redwood. Much of the land he hopes to grab has been homesteaded by a Quaker colony, who try to persuade him to spare the giant sequoias...but these are the very trees he wants most. Expert at manipulating others, Fallon finds that other sharks are at his own heels, and forms an unlikely alliance.

★★★★ · Kirk Douglas as Jim Fallon · Klystron>7000 · 2022-02-14
Surprised there are no reviews. This is a pretty decent film. I remember watching it on AMC years ago and could not remember the name of the movie. Anyway, as far as I'm concerned, Kirk Douglas again, does an outstanding job. His last film for Warner Brothers.
