George O'Brien stars as itinerant cowboy Jim Hall who joins Hank Hays' band of rustlers, only to fall in love with rancher Cecil Herrick's daughter Helen, played by Maureen O'Sullivan. The movie was filmed entirely in Arizona. Zane Grey based his original western on the activities of Butch Cassidy, who after rustling cattle would hide them on Robbers' Roost. The H.C.
