Border Cafe is a 1937 American Western film directed by Lew Landers and starring Harry Carey.[1]
Keith Whitney, the son of a wealthy senator, travels to the western part of the country to purchase a ranch. After losing his money at a cafe near the border, he is taken in by a rancher named Tex, who offers him refuge and makes him a partial owner of the ranch.
