The Sheriff of Stone Gulch
In this rare, surviving one-reel Western from the pioneering Kalem company, Ruth Roland's fiancé, Dick, is falsely accused of robbing a bank, a dirty deed actually committed by one Black McCarty. Roland helps Dick escape and later supplies him with a weapon, but her irate father, the sheriff, must be put out of action -- by his own handcuffs as it turns out -- before the villain can be captured and peace restored.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a classic wrongful accusation plot, relying entirely on expressive pantomime and rapid editing to build tension. It's a foundational blueprint for the chase, the shootout, and the conflict between law and loyalty.
What lingers after the final reel is the efficient purity of early genre storytelling, where every gesture and frame serves the swift delivery of justice. — MovieFinder Editorial
