Wild Horse

Hoot Gibson considered his part in the fast-paced western Wild Horse to be his favorite among all of his starring roles. He plays Jim Wright, a cowpoke working on a rodeo ranch, who manages to capture "the Devil Horse," a steed that had successfully eluded all the area's horse wranglers. But the horse is stolen by ranch hand Edmund Cobb who also murders Gibson's buddy Bill Robbins. Things get intense when Gibson is blamed for both crimes. "The Devil Horse" was played by the magnificent Mut, a horse from Gibson's own stable.
