Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhile the exact time frame of the movie is unclear, at 22:16 a portrait of Theodore Roosevelt is seen on the wall over Eleanor's left shoulder. Roosevelt served as U.S. President from 1901 to 1909 meaning the film takes place within the first decade of the turn of the century.
- GoofsNear the final scene, when John Wayne and the villains are standing in front of a hill, a shadow from the boom microphone is visible on their pants.
- Quotes
[John Martin has assisted old timer George to get to his supposed mule, Nellie - and is surprised to see a motor car instead]
John Martin: Is that Nellie?
George Hale: [earnestly and proudly] Yup. That's Nellie.
John Martin: Well, it's an automobile, isn't it?
George Hale: Yes-sir-re-bob. Ain't nuttin' like 'er in th' whole county!
John Martin: [smiles] You mean, *the whole world*?
- ConnectionsEdited into 'Neath Arizona Skies (1962)
The fight scenes were obviously pre- the great Yakima Canutt-choreographed battles, and the sound recording was almost primitive, certainly compared to what was to come.
But all together, with villains Leroy Mason and Jay Wilsey, here billed as Buffalo Bill Jr., this is a pretty good movie.
Besides, characters played by George (pre-"Gabby") Hayes and the lovely Lucile (billed as "Lucille") Brown side the hero, played by John Wayne, and they make a triumphant triumvirate.
Even this early in his career, John Wayne shows both personality and a great ability to express his thoughts and emotions, as well as the athletic ability to be one of the great action heroes of motion pictures. I do recommend this movie.
