As a tribute to Elmore Leonard, who died last month, a repeat of an adaptation of his classic Western novel.

John Russell has been raised as an Apache. Now he's on his way to live as a white man. But when the stagecoach passengers learn who he is, they want nothing to do with him. That is, until outlaws ride down on them and they must rely on Russell to lead them out of the desert.
