Synopsis

A Mexican ranch heiress is kept indoors at night because her father fears she will repeat her grandmother's scandalous behaviour. Attraction to a visiting American brings her into conflict with a persistent outlaw. Family attempts to control her reputation prove little protection against the competing desires gathering around the hacienda.

Cast

Behind the scenes

Mae Murray stars under the direction of her then-husband Robert Z. Leonard. The production gives her opportunities for the dancing associated with her screen persona while placing them within a romantic melodrama rather than a straightforward musical comedy.
