Lone Star

Clark Gable is still not revealing his identity, as a supporter of Texas annexation sent by Andrew Jackson, but Texan Martha (Ava Gardner) has grown interested in him, separating themselves from the crowd at an Austin dinner party, with an un-credited song, in MGM's Lone Star, 1952.

Clark Gable is Devereaux Burke, headed from Tennessee to Texas where he’ll be organizing support for annexation into the United States, when he gets a lucky chance to rescue a key rival (Broderick Crawford as Craden) from Indians, not revealing his identity, in Lone Star, 1952.

Lionel Barrymore is a cranky, benevolent ex-president Andrew Jackson, Beulah Bondi his gal Friday, and they’re pleased that Clark Gable as Burke, supporting their plan to annex Texas, is arriving in Tennessee to wrangle spineless politicians (Charles Cane, Roy Gordon et al), early in Lone Star, 1952.

Clark Gable is hiding the fact that he’s an ally of (ex) President Andrew Jackson sent to advocate Texas’ annexation into the union, especially from tough cattleman Craden (Broderick Crawford), arriving in Austin, 1845, where he meets second-billed Ava Gardner as publisher Martha, in Lone Star, 1952.
