Wild Brian Kent (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Deadbeat polo-player Brian Kent is removed from his train in the small Kansas town of Hopeville. The new arrival charms pretty young Betty Prentice and her Aunt Sue into inviting him to stay at their ranch. The Prentice girls are in danger of losing their property to swindling realtor Tony Baxter - a fate suffered by many of their neighbors. As Brian's feelings for Betty are awakened, so are his scruples. Kent decides to stay and help the Prentices fight to save their land.

Filmed on real ranch and small-town locations, director Howard Bretherton imbues Wild Brian Kent with the genuine period ambience that graced Harold Bell Wright's 1919 novel. Ralph Bellamy and his costar are really riding their own horses in this film - Mae Clark claimed she practiced in Central Park. Villains Stanley Andrews (The Lone Ranger serial, 1938) and Richard Alexander (Flash Gordon,1936) round out the cast.
