Relentless (1948)


Columbia Pictures
Directed by George Sherman
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Encore)

Robert Young is an easy going cowboy who just wants independence and to take care of his animals. One day his horse is stolen and is killed, so he tracks down the man who did it and shoots him dead. However, circumstances frame him for a series of murders he did not commit. The dead man's partner can clear him of the charges, but he has to find him first. He befriends a traveling salesgirl who helps him out of many tricky situations and of course they fall in love. The search leads him into a shootout in the mountains of a desert. Familiar tale competently told, but lacks grit.
