Hilarity at Its Best
11 July 2008
"Son of Pale Face" is good clean fun performed by 3 great stars who are joined together with Trigger as one great team. Roy plays the good guy and government agent going after the infamous bandit , "the Torch", played by the sexy Jane Russell. Gumming up the works of course is Bob Hope who plays the off-spring of DDS Pale Face Potter from the earlier movie, "Pale Face" 4 years before. I saw this movie in 1952 and was a great fan of Roy Rogers. I remember I was disappointed during the movie that Roy wasn't wearing his twin six-shooters and was just using his secret agent's guitar hidden gun by pulling one of the strings to thwart his foes. I was happy though that he didn't have any kissing scenes with Jane Russell. I was sure he was going to (dread the thought) during the bar scene and was relieved that he thought the better of it. Afterall it was a sissy thing to do in those days if he did. His reputation remained intact with me from then on.
