The plot of "McLintock!" revolves around the character of George Washington "G.W." McLintock, played by John Wayne, a wealthy and respected rancher in the American Old West. McLintock is a tough and no-nonsense man who manages his cattle ranch and the nearby town of McLintock with authority.
The film's story unfolds when his estranged wife, Katherine Gilhooley McLintock (played by Maureen O'Hara), returns to town. She had left him several years earlier, and her return leads to a clash of strong-willed personalities. The film explores their turbulent relationship, the dynamics of their interactions, and the comedic situations that arise from their confrontations.
Amid the marital discord, the film also delves into various subplots, including political and social issues in the town, as well as the romantic interests of their daughter, Becky McLintock (played by Stefanie Powers). Additionally, the film features humorous supporting characters, including McLintock's loyal Native American friend, Comanche (played by Bruce Cabot), and a bumbling but well-meaning deputy sheriff (played by Chill Wills) (1963).
