Fuller's first film, a B-movie shot in 10 days.

It's so poofy - especially the bath scene - and, it is rubbish.

The(ir) Blurb...

After a bank robbery goes bad, Jesse James and a wounded Bob Ford lay low for 6 months. Ford is thrilled to learn that his love, Cynthy Waters, is in town acting on stage with a traveling company. She's happy to see him but both realize that with a price on his head, they are unlikely to marry. When the Governor announces an amnesty for any criminal that brings in Jesse James, dead or alive, Ford decides to act and shoots his best friend in the back. He receives a pardon from the Governor but finds that he's become something of a pariah, being labeled both a traitor and a coward. He goes off to make his fortune in mining but finds that there is nothing he can do to make Cynthy love him.
