Kelly Cobb travels and performs in various country rodeos in order to get enough money to buy a patch of land to call his own. One day he picks up Jackie Adams, a saloon singer and trick rider whom he saves from a clutching admirer. The two travel together and Jackie begins to fall in love with Kelly. Kelly however doesn't notice because of his drive to risk his life for the dream of the land he pursues. Jackie sums up that Kelly was just born reckless and she strives to change his free roaming lifestyle.
Jeff Richards was cast shortly after his release from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. He did a lot of his own stunts, and had to take a brief hiatus after an automobile accident he sustained while driving to rehearsals.[2] Carol Ohmart was offered the part as an apology by Jack Warner for accusing her of hiding her then-husband Wayde Preston, who had walked off the set of Colt .45.[3]
