The First Texan (1956)
Nadat hij in Texas is aangekomen om aan een schandaal in het oosten te ontsnappen, wil advocaat Sam Houston gewoon zijn gang gaan, onopvallend blijven en zich buiten elke politieke intrige houden. Wanneer president Jackson hem echter persoonlijk opdraagt de strijd voor de Texaanse onafhankelijkheid te leiden, overwint hij zijn onwil om betrokken te raken en leidt hij zijn landgenoten naar een reeks overwinningen op het Mexicaanse leger.
