Fort Osage

A frontier scout hired to lead a wagon train from Missouri to the gold fields in California finds out that the two men organising the journey are ruthlessly exploiting the people under their protection. They have also broken a treaty with the local Osage Indian tribe, putting everyone's lives in danger.

Fort Osage is a routine western monogram programmer with the expected fist fights, chases, and shootouts, round this up with a workmanlike plot and you get a pretty diverting little nugget. For diehard western fans, especially of old-fashioned kind. Rod Cameron does his usual sturdy acting, playing a firm yet honourable figure who recognises that the Osage are on the warpath for a reason. Douglas Kennedy does what he does best and provides the villainy.
