Noche cerrada

Tucker, a very young Kentucky soldier who lied about his age to enlist, returns from the Korean War with eleven medals, four hundred dollars in pay and a Ka-Bar knife. On the way home, he meets a teenager in distress whom he ends up marrying and raising a family. Tucker, who makes a living transporting alcohol for smuggler Ananias Beanpole, is a man of few words and a good heart. However, he will not hesitate to use force to protect his family and claim what he considers to be his.
