Bucking Broadway

Year: 1917

On a ranch in the depths of Wyoming, a cowboy, Cheyenne Harry, and the owner’s daughter, Helen Clayton, are on their way to get engaged when a horse dealer abducts the girl. Listening only to his heart, Cheyenne Harry jumps on the first train to New York.

Lost in the Big Apple, the frontiersman triggers a Homeric battle. His wild imaginings are worthy of those of Peter Sellers in The Party!
