Overview

Ageing, wealthy, rancher and self-made man, George Washington McLintock is forced to deal with numerous personal and professional problems. Seemingly everyone wants a piece of his enormous farmstead, including high-ranking government men and nearby Native Americans. As McLintock tries to juggle his various adversaries, his wife—who left him two years previously—suddenly returns. But she isn't interested in George; she wants custody of their daughter.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A robust comedy-western where a stubborn cattle baron must navigate his professional empire while reconciling with the wife who left him, all while the land itself seems to be slipping away. It's broad, energetic fun that undercuts its action with genuine romantic tension.
