On a caravan to California, Dr. Holt Ezra punishes his wife Hetty for flirting with young men.

So, White Renegade. Is it worth your time today? Hmm. If you're into silent films, especially ones that get a bit melodramatic with some real icky marital dynamics, then yeah, maybe give it a look. If you're looking for something light or even just a well-paced Western, this one might feel like a bit of a slog. Honestl...

Dr. Holt Ezra and his wife, Hetty, are part of a wagon train heading for California. But things aren't exactly peaceful under the prairie sun. Holt gets pretty worked up whenever Hetty even *looks* at another man, and he makes sure she knows it. Their caravan makes a stop in the town of Independence, and you can just feel the tension bubbling up, waiting to spill over.

Honestly, anyone who gets easily frustrated by characters making truly terrible decisions or just, well, *bad* men, might want to skip it. 😬 This movie, from 1924, is all about Dr. Holt..."
