In San Francisco, Bart (Jack Kelly) suspects that one of the town's leading citizens, Van Buren Kingsley, is a swindler. Before long, Kingsley shows his hand by arranging for Bart to get beaten up and shanghaied. In typical Maverick fashion, Bart tries to turn the tables on the duplicitous Kingsley by setting up a sting operation involving a cache of valuable diamonds. Watch for veteran character actor Sig Ruman, aka "Concentration Camp Ehrhardt" in the Jack Benny film To Be or Not to Be, in a supporting role. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
A soft-spoken, thirteen-year old dreamer enters into a tentative friendship with a decidedly older and more popular boy in director Cam Archer's compassionate coming of age drama. Logan is an adolescent boy who just doesn't seem to fit in. Though the majority of the kids in his school view Logan as an outcast, cool older kid Rodeo Walker is one of the few students in the school who don't seem to go out of their way to make Logan's life miserable. As Logan begins to get in touch with his sexuality and a strange bond forms between he and Rodeo, the newly empowered Logan soon begins to take on the persona of Leah, an assured and seductive girl who seems to possess the self-confidence that has long been bullied out of her male alter ego. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
