About The Broken Spur
Engineer Joe Dayton faces sabotage while constructing a railroad through the Canadian Northwest. Local bandit leader Jacques Durand attempts to stop the project, fearing it will bring law and order. Complicating matters, Dayton and Durand are look-alike doppelgangers.
Directed by Ben F. Wilson, The Broken Spur leans on a strong ensemble — Jack Hoxie, Evelyn Nelson, Edward W. Borman — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about western titles of 1921.
