The Gallant Fool

19330.0 / 1056 min
Western

Overview

Hair-raising stunts of the big top-with a western wallop. Suspense! Punch! Action! And a Baffling Mystery!

The circus arrives in Great Shows. Rainey Big Ben and Kit Denton, the star of the show, are informed that no representation will be allowed in the city, and that their presence is not desired by the local potentate. This incomprehensible hatred is equaled only by the Kit 's father's contempt for women. Kit, who criticized his father's contemptuous attitude towards Alicia, his girlfriend, Kit's father tells him of the drama he lived in Big Ben many years earlier.
