Let Freedom Ring (film)

Let Freedom Ring is a 1939 in Sepiatone Western directed by Jack Conway, starring Nelson Eddy and Virginia Bruce.

Railway owner Jim Knox (Edward Arnold) wants to increase his profit by purchasing more than just the right of way for his railroad.

Logan is expecting his son Steve (Nelson Eddy), a recent graduate of Harvard Law School, to fight for the rights of the farmers of Clover City.

Knox is puzzled as to why the fire wasn't set until Gagan is found unconscious thrown across the back of a horse with a note stating that he "forgot the matches."

Maggie Adams (Virginia Bruce), who runs the local restaurant, loves Steve but she can't forgive him for siding with Knox.

Keeping Underwood prisoner in a cave in the nearby mountains, they print newspapers exposing the corruption of Jim Knox and supporting the election of Thomas Logan as Judge.

On the eve of the election, the Wasp is expected to pick up the latest edition of the paper which is being stored at the Logan Farm.

Steve apologizes for deceiving his father but must leave quickly as Knox and his men have heard where the papers are stored and arrive looking for the Wasp.

The New York Times said the film was "sound dramatic stuff" with "vigor, good characterization and, fortunately, Mr. Eddy's singing.
