Jesse James at Bay

Jessie James (Roy Rogers), a Robin Hood-like hero, comes to the aid of defenseless Missouri settlers that have been swindled out of their land by the ruthless railroad magnate Phineas Krager (Pierre Watkin). After James robs one of Krager's trains and holds up his bank, Krager plots his revenge by persuading a dead-ringer James look-alike, Clint Burns (Rogers in a dual role), to pose as the outlaw and pillage the unknowing landowners' property. When word gets out that the real Jess James has been shot and abandoned by his gang, Burns rides off to finish him off and collect the $10,000 reward for his capture. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)
