Oklahoma Crude

In 1913 Oklahoma, a feisty woman named Lila Wakefield finds herself in a legal battle over oil-rich land with a ruthless and corrupt politician. She hires a drifter, "Cookie" Byrne, to help her protect her claim. Together, they navigate a treacherous landscape filled with double-crosses, violence, and attempts on their lives as they fight for their rightful share of the oil.
