==Plot==
Kelly Emerson"Boss" Spearman ([[Robert Duvall]]) is a free-range cattleman, who, with hired hands Charley Waite ([[Kevin Costner]]), Mose ([[Abraham Benrubi]]), Button ([[Diego Luna]]), and dog Tig is driving a herd cross country. Charley is a former [[soldier]] who fought in the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] and feels guilt over his past as a killer.
Boss sends Mose to the nearby town of Harmonville for supplies. The town is controlled by a ruthless [[Irish people|Irish]] immigrant [[land baron]], Denton Baxter ([[Michael Gambon]]), who hates free-rangers. Mose is badly beaten and then jailed by the town sheriff, Poole ([[James Russo]]), whom Baxter "owns." Many townspeople accept that Baxter is all-powerful and corrupt while others harbor animosity towards him. The only friendly inhabitant they meet is Percy ([[Michael Jeter]]), a livery stable owner.
