Valley of the Sun

Lucille Ball stars as Christine Larson, owner of the Busy Bee Café in Arizona in 1868. Larson is ready to marry Jim Sawyer despite warnings from her friends that he doesn't truly love her. Jonathon Ware (James Craig) has it in for Sawyer on account of Sawyer dumping him from the stage coach that carried Sawyer into town. Ware beats Sawyer in a fist fight, but Sawyer sends his men to find Ware and beat him senseless, thereby landing him in the arms of Larson for medical treatment. Ware falls for Larson, and will go any distance to prevent Sawyer and Larson from hitching up. (official distributor synopsis)
