Heartland

The true story of the young widow Elinore Randall, who leaves her home in Denver to become housekeeper and later wife, to a dour Scotsman on his remote ranch in Burnt Fork, Wyoming. Together they endure the hardships and privations of farming the harsh barren land - he with grim determination, she with cheerful resilience and humour. Conchata Ferrell won universal acclaim for her role as the plucky young widow in this poignant yet unsentimental portrayal of the pioneering days of the West.
