In the 12th Century, Mongolian warlord Temujin (John Wayne, The Searchers) is a man of action over words. A respected warrior, destined to be crowned the great leader Genghis Khan, he is haunted by the violent loss of his father and engages in heated battle against the rival tribe responsible for his death. But on the home front, life is equally complicated as Temujin’s interest is taken by red-haired Tartar prisoner Bortai (Susan Hayward, I Want to Live!). Captured in a raid she becomes both a welcome distraction and a bargaining chip for Temujin, who is forced to look deep into his heart for the first time in his life. (Umbrella Entertainment)
