The two cinematic icons star as anewly married man and wife struggling to keep their union together on Tracy's vast New Mexico cattle ranch. Their already rocky relationship goes through increasingly hard times as Tracy tries to rule both his headstrong wife and his beloved land with aniron fist, only to find Hepburn driven into the arms of another by his ruthless nature.
