Rooster saddles up for action.
Paramount The story is an oft-told tale shaped injected with a freshness derived from character. Mattie Ross is the non-nonsense daughter of rancher Frank Ross. When her Dad is cut down by drunken ranch hand Tom Chaney, young Miss Ross sets out to revenge her father's murder. She enlists the aid of Deputy US Marshall Rooster Cogburn, a tough, hard drinking loner, who has a reputation for getting his man any way he can. A Texas Ranger, Le Boeff, joins forces with the paltry posse to bring Chaney to justice.
