Tonight's presentation in this season of feature films stars James Stewart with Dan Duryea, Joanne Dru, Gilbert Roland, Antonio Moreno

Action in the Louisiana fishing grounds, when two tough oil prospectors spark off open warfare by operating an off-shore drilling rig in the shrimping grounds. Steve Martin and Johnny Gambi persuade an oil tycoon to back them, but they haven't reckoned on the opposition of the local fishermen.
James Stewart renews his partnership with director Anthony Mann - a partnership which began with Winchester 73 and later extended to such fine films as The Glenn Miller Story, The Far Country, Strategic Air Command, and The Man from Laramie.
