Ridin' Pretty

The rollicking silent feature, Ridin' Pretty, charts the abrupt cultural collision when Sky Parker, a rugged Arizona cowboy, inherits a substantial fortune from his eccentric San Franciscan uncle. The catch: he must endure a year within the urban confines of his late relative's mansion to claim the bequest. Sky, far from a lone wolf, arrives with a boisterous entourage of five fellow cowboys, whose immediate inclination to 'raise western hell' manifests in delightfully anachronistic ways—from the audacious theft of brewery Clydesdales to the casual target practice on the mansion's architectural gargoyles. This chaotic arrival sets the stage for a classic inheritance plot, complicated by the conniving cousin Miller, who enlists the beguiling Maize to sabotage Sky’s claim. Yet, in a predictable yet charming twist, Maize finds herself genuinely falling for the untamed charm of the ramrod cowboy. Her subsequent refusal to continue the deception, and her flight from Sky’s innocent marriage proposal, propels the narrative into a thrilling chase sequence, culminating in a daring train pursuit where confessions are made and love is solidified, leading to a satisfying confrontation back at the mansion.
