Burt Lancaster leads this sweeping outdoor adventure drama as a powerful cattle baron who adopts an orphaned boy. His biological son, feeling displaced, develops deep resentment that grows into hatred. When the brothers mature, the son schemes to eliminate his step‑brother by framing him for fathering a child that is actually his own, hoping the accusation will remove his rival and allow him to inherit their father’s empire.
