Drums of the Desert

"A big-scale outdoor melodrama-lavishly filmed to depict the mighty human drama of a dying race. 'Twill stir your blood to the quick if you like this kind of a show."

John Curry is a friend of the Navajos who fails in his attempts to keep the white man from exploiting the tribe's secret altars. Realizing that there is oil to be found on the reservation, evil Will Newton gains entry to the area by posing as a trail guide for Elias Manton, an archeologist, and his daughter Mary.
