Lone Star Pictures
Directed by Robert N. Bradbury
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Columbia TriStar)
John Wayne is Singin' Sandy Saunders, the meanest gunslinger since Billy the Kid. He sings morbid ballads while ridin' the plains or shootin' it out in the city. He saves a girl from some bandits and befriends her, her father and the whole town. A water baron has them literally dying of thirst when he shuts down the water supply. Don't worry, ole' Singin' Sandy is really a good guy and will save the day. Fuzzy St. John and Gabby Hayes have supporting roles, but I don't recall any scenes with them together. The Columbia TriStar release in the "Riding the Range" collection is marred by a modern synth soundtrack, although the picture looks great.
