Nugget is funny. Makes me laugh

Jeff Clarke -- Interesting stuff. Also of interest, this movie was directed by Yakima Canutt -- a most accomplished stuntman himself. Some of Canutt's stunts are legendary. But, this is the only directing credit I've ever seen, not that it is the only one, just that I've never known before that he directed. A real cowboy and quite an accomplished horseman, he trained the horses to chariots and oversaw production of the race in Ben Hur. And speaking of doubling for Clark Gable, if not mistaken, he was doubling for Gable in the burning of Atlanta scenes in Gone With the Wind. No doubt Canutt and Van Sickel were good friends as well as co-workers in the Hollywood stunt profession. That Canutt trusted him with the very difficult stunts in this movie is high praise, indeed. Enjoyed very much. Thanks for sharing, Nevada Jane.

Jeff Clarke 7o b Bbbb

Yakima Canutt played in almost all of John Wayne's early westerns. He was the Indian who fell between the horses & stagecoach in the '39 STAGECOACH. The most dangerous stunt ever done for a long time. Him & John Wayne were good friends. Part native American from the state of Washington.

I noticed that the lady’s face was blacked out to hide the double for Miss Leslie in the chase scene.

Thank you for the information ❤

All this filming is in California. Filming in the Midwest “so called states” weren’t true geography. Kansas was never portrayed as it is either.

Ooops. I looked at the dates wrong. I was 4 years old when this movie was made. 😮😮😮😮😮😮

What Yak was known for was his long career as top Hollywood Stunt man and inventor of many of the stunts done safely, in particular the ones used in John Wayne movies early on. His two boys followed him and all did the Chariot Race with Charlton Heston in THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. They taught Heston to drive the Chariot.

That chariot race was in Ben Hur. Yak was the stunt coordinator for that film.

Punctuation is our friend.

He made heaps. Just search Rocky Lane movies.

The.man.with.the broken.leg. at.the.begining of the movie probably got paid a small wage.

Rocky Lane and Blackjack . Gene Autry and Champ. Roy Rogers. and Trigger.who else besides the Lone Ranger and Tonto had.a horse side kick ?.

How about Hopalog Cassidy and his horse Topper

@@davidcansler7025 I never knew that Hoppie had a sidekick 🐎... Even w/o the side kick,I Luv Audie Murphy..Randolph Scott..Errol Flynn..The Restless Gun is also a good Western series ..

Sleepy bad guy was a nice touch.

Yeah, before concussions were invented!

And his hat rarely falls off. Great punching scenes.

They did have color back then, beginning from the early-mid 30s, and even earlier for the more basic processes. Black and white was really the only choice for modest budget films like this one. Also, color wouldn't have improved it one bit: it's not that kind of movie. This is all about the action; and there're different kinds of spectacles.

green koko I know right and the way he ran and jumped his foot into that stirrup to get on that horse..whew I caught a hot flash, that was so sexy

Peter Goddard it was in the script

Cowboys galore getting shot dead in the middle of nowhere, who collects and buries those bodies or are they easy pickings for the vulchers.
