The Untamed is a 1920 American silent Western film directed by Emmett J. Flynn and starring Tom Mix, Pauline Starke, and George Siegmann.
[1][2] As described in a film magazine,[3] Whistling Dan (Mix), the adopted son of rancher Joe Cumberland (Barrows), has been raised since childhood with the latter aware of his instinct to fight like an animal and kill that which harms him.
Joe has forbidden Dan from frequenting Morgan's Place, a gathering ground of local renegades and desperadoes.
Joe then purchases the place with the intent to close it, and on the last day of its activity Dan encounters Jim Silent (Siegmann), an insulting cowboy.
When he is left behind following an unfair fight to perish in the building after his enemy has set fire to it, Dan is rescued by his dovillainous g and horse.
