Directed by Irving Allen
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)
This fun, lighthearted western is the product of a bygone age. You know you are in for something different when the opening theme song describes the plot of the movie, the characters and even what we are seeing on the screen. The songs are plentiful throughout, and I can just see a theater full of matinee kids in 1951 singing along. In fact, the songs are by Terry Gilkyson, and his character is "Singalong". The plot is strictly routine: stagecoach is held up, bad guys go on the lam, cavalry searches for them, some Indians get involved, the bad guys get caught. It's in Cinecolor.
