In 1890 Wyoming, James Averill is the Sherriff of Johnson County, which is largely inhabited by foreign immigrants. The wealthy cattle owners view the immigrant farmers as a nuisance and hindrance to them enlarging their own land. The cattlemen’s association, the Wyoming Stock Growers Association, effectively declares war on the immigrant farmers and gets the state government’s blessing. They assemble an army of guns-for-hire and, backed by the U.S. Cavalry, set out to rid the state of the immigrants. James Averill’s heart is with the immigrants, but he doesn’t think they have a chance of winning the inevitable war.
這部耗資達四千萬元製作的史詩式西部片，由邁克爾．西米諾執導。劇情講述十九世紀末，美國懷州的地主為了維護他們的權益，跟歐洲來的移民展開鬥爭。本片內容單薄，結構鬆散，導演重複自己在《越戰獵鹿人》拍攝舞會場面所用的類似手法，冗長而無必要，僅有攝影一項維持水準。從商業上講，本片是一部虧損慘重的“災難性巨片”。
