Classic, archetypal hero. Plot twist at the end, which some anticipate and some don't. One of the fastest draws shown in any film. Ending a bit disappointing, as final confrontation is short and not settled with firearms. For fans of the genre, a must-see.

Republic's self-satire. An unusual western, played tongue-in-cheek by the Republic repertory players and apparently released without fanfare. Smiley plays a dual role, Frog and a totally evil bank robber. At the end, there is a fist fight between Sunset and Smiley's double. All this may have been missed by the kids, but as an adult who grew up on westerns, it's one of my top 10.

Well received in it's time and holds up well today. Plot and dialog are notable, and the Heather Angel character is powerful decades before feminism. Skip Banderas. Watch this one.
