Hondo Movie Summary
Out on the New Mexico Territory, in the middle of Apache country, sits the Lowe Ranch. Angie and her six-year-old son, Johnny, work the land while her husband is away.
One day, a man named Lane, arrives on foot asking for help after losing his horse in a confrontation with Indians. He does work around the homestead to pay for one of their horses to use. While Lane does these chores, he learns that Angie’s husband has been gone for quite some time. Meanwhile, Angie learns that Lane’s firs name is Hondo, and he killed three men a year ago.
Hondo soon leaves the ranch, and returns to his post where the commanding officer learns that C troop has been wiped out by the Apaches. Back at the ranch, the Apaches show up to kill Angie and Johnny. Instead, Chief Vittorio makes Johnny an Apache blood brother for his bravery in defending his mother. They leave the home in peace for now.
