The Texas frontier of the 1870's was a dangerous place: too many Indians, too many greaser gangs, and far too many outlaws. Homesteaders, ranchers, and the people of Texas' small towns and cities couldn't protect themselves or their way of life. The U.S. Cavalry was tasked with relocating the Indians, but all the other problems were left for the Texas Rangers. Talon Finley was just a boy when he became a Texas Ranger. His background on a Wyoming r, his skill in training horses and his dedication to justice, made Ranger life a perfect occupation. It didn't hurt that he was one of the best shots in the West. But he also had a target on his back, from the kin of those he had killed. T. T. Finley, Talon's twin sister, was growing up fast, too. Her enrollment at Vassar College and the best efforts of friends and family to make her more sophisticated could not diminish her keen observation skills, shooting prowess, and fearless demeanor. But these same traits led her into the thick of things, where she managed to survive close scrapes and gunfights. According to Indian Legend, there's a Honey Hole in a cave near Uvalde County, Texas, where honey flows like a river and vast swarms of wild honeybees can shape shift into a man. Talon Finley, the Ranger, slams into the Honey Hole and emerges as the legend.
After the Alamo and the Civil War, the frontier of Texas was a wild place, with only a few good men to keep the peace: the Texas Rangers. Homesteaders, ranchers and the U.S. Army counted on the Rangers to protect the land from marauding Indians and Mexican greaser gangs. Talon Finley wants revenge, but more importantly, justice. Just a kid himself, he turns his skill training horses and a penchant for integrity into a stint as a Texas Ranger. In the vast expanse of the new frontier, from Texas to the Rockies, Talon and his trusted horse, Sam, take on trouble wherever they find it. T. T. Finley, Talon's twin sister, was raised on a ranch in Wyoming. She heads east to attend finishing school, with a gun sewn into her petticoats. A crack shot, she foils a train robbery, uncovers a conspiracy of cattle rustlers, thieves and murderers... and makes the best doughnuts on either side of the Mississippi. Pogonip, the ice-fog condition prevalent in canyons in the old west, foreshadows the chilling reality and danger of a quest to make things right, by a boy who would become a man and a girl who discovers her true purpose.
Comedy classic from the 'Saturday Night Live' stable which comes packed with car chases, music and cameo appearances. Blues brothers Jake and Elwood (John Belushi and Dan Ackroyd) have sold their souls to rhythm'n'blues, but still lend a hand when the church orphanage in which they were raised is threatened with closure. Resolving to get their old band together and stage a fund-raising gig, the brothers have God on their side but everyone else against them - and that includes a bunch of Country and Western rednecks, an angry chapter of neo-Nazi thugs, the massed ranks of the Chicago police force, and Jake's psychotic ex-girlfriend Camille (Carrie Fisher).
