The Big Trees
MAMMOTH REDWOOD WILDERNESS -- TREASURE PILED TO THE SKY!
Directed by Felix E. Feist
Produced by Warner Bros. Pictures
A period Western drama about greed versus conservation, where a ruthless timber baron's schemes collide with Quaker principles and rival opportunists in the California redwood wilderness.
In 1900, unscrupulous timber baron Jim Fallon plans to take advantage of a new law and make millions off California redwood. Much of the land he hopes to grab has been homesteaded by a Quaker colony, who try to persuade him to spare the giant sequoias...but these are the very trees he wants most. Expert at manipulating others, Fallon finds that other sharks are at his own heels, and forms an unlikely alliance.
