The Proud Rebel

CriticsCritics: 66
AudienceAudience: 6.7

After the Civil War, a veteran travels with his mute son, seeking help for the boy’s trauma. When the father is unfairly jailed after a town fight, a local rancher pays his fine in exchange for work, drawing him into her battle to protect her land from a determined neighboring family.

My take

You’ll enjoy this gentle, emotional Western if you like family stories, loyal animals, and gradual character drama; Not for you if you want fast action or a less familiar plot like Shane.
