John Ford, cujo próprio nome é sinônimo do gênero, dirigiu o elenco perfeito. Jimmy Stewart interpreta o desajeitado mas charmoso advogado da cidade grande, decidido a livrar o vilarejo de Shinbone de seu encrenqueiro e mau caráter número um: Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin). E como se não bastasse, o maior astro que já apertou o gatilho interpreta o homem do título: John Wayne. O supersincero Stewart e o rústico rancheiro Wayne também dividem a mesma paixão (Vera Miles). Um pega o pistoleiro e o outro pega a garota.

In Roy Rogers' Down Dakota Way, the deadly hoof-and-mouth disease has struck the herd owned by evil rancher H. T. McKenzie (Roy Barcroft).

Rogers manages to straighten out the situation by appealing to the sensibilities of the aunt (Elizabeth Risdon) of McKenzie's hotheaded hired assassin (Byron Barr). The film also bears several musical numbers from Roy, Dale Evans, and Foy Willing and the Riders of the Purple Sage.
