Movie Recommendation..Tall in the Saddle Duke & Gabby Ha

Post by RIHMFIRE »

Saw this movie earlier today...1944 western with John Wayne
and George "Gabby" Hayse...Real good and funny western...
a must see....
John Wayne has come to town, so he says, to work for a local rancher--who was murdered shortly after sending for him. Prime villain would appear to be Ward Bond, exuding oiliness as the local judge, who doesn't seem to be a real judge. Paul Fix (who cowrote the screenplay) and Harry Woods supply the thuggery. But mostly it's women that Wayne has trouble with: the dead man's genteel niece (Audrey Long) and her virago of a duenna (Elisabeth Risdon), and especially Ella Raines, who dresses like a cowboy, runs the neighboring ranch, and falls into instant love-hate with Wayne.And in the end Gabby get his revenge on the old bat of a woman....

Yep one of my all time favorites.
