The true story of the formation of the Texas Rangers provides the backdrop for this youth-oriented Western. In 1875, after the Civil War, Leander McNelly (Dylan McDermott) organizes the Texas Rangers to battle the outlaws terrorizing Texas, notably crime kingpin John King Fisher (Alfred_Molina). With a team of experienced gunmen (Robert_Patrick and Randy_Travis) and enthusiastic but green recruits (James_Van_Der_Beek, Usher_Raymond, and Ashton_Kutcher), McNelly and his Rangers bring law and order to the wild Texas plains; McNelly must also keep order among his charges when two rangers fall in love with the same woman, Caroline Dukes (Rachael_Leigh_Cook). Tom_Skerritt and Vincent_Spano are also featured in the supporting cast; the screenplay, adapted from a script by John_Milius, was at one time set to be filmed by Sam_Peckinpah, shortly before the legendary Western director's death in 1984.
