Hank Stamper and his father, Henry Stamper own and operate the family business by cutting and shipping logs in Oregon. The town is furious when they continue working despite the town going broke and the other loggers go on strike ordering the Stampers to stop, however Hank continues to push his family on cutting more trees. Hank's wife wishes he would stop and hopes that they can spend more time together. When Hank's half trouble making brother Leland comes to work for them, more trouble starts. Written by Anonymous
Having seen this movie twice (once under each name) I can say that I enjoyed it both times. The big name actors and actresses plus a neat storyline make it worthwhile to see. Kind of the little guy against the big guy. The last scene is great!
