Will Cooper is a modern day cowboy struggling to keep his land after five generations of ranching.

To me this movie shows what's happening in America today. This farmer is intent on keeping the land that's been in his family for five generations. It's not about money, it's about family, tradition, and values. Lance Henriksen was everything you would expect a Texas cowboy to be. Beautiful scenery, which only reinforces the desire to see this cowboy keep his land and his way of living rather than lose it to a banking institution where their only intention is to subdivide the land. How dreadful it would be to see housing communities across those hills. Outstanding cast and great story line keep you interested until the very end. Lance Henriksen, Jennie Garth and M.C. Gainey were very real, likable, and believable characters. Would like to see a sequel because it makes you feel as if there is more to the story that needs to be said. Have recently started to view the Hallmark channel, and have thoroughly enjoyed "The Last Cowboy", "Johnson County War", and "The Colt". It's so refreshing to watch programs that touch the heart. All are worth seeing again.

score 9/10
