Afrontando o Perigo

This shortie was kind of mid-career for cowboy Mason (Tim Holt). He's been sent to find Ann Jordan, who is rumored to be commiting murder and various other crimes. The film opens in a bar with a jug band playing, and some rough and tough gang make it plain that they don't like music, and start a good old fashioned bar brawl. It's the usual "Oat burner", with lots of gun fights on horseback, chases through the desert. Apparently, this has almost the same plot as "Renegade Ranger", another, earlier RKO film from ten years back. Frances Neal is "Jordan"... and she only had a few roles... looks like her biggest role was as MRS. Van Heflin. The bad guys are onto Mason, but he still has a trick or two up his sleeve. Directed by Ed Killy, who had made TEN films with Tim Holt. the acting here is all so-so. story and directing about the same. so much singing. probably should have jazzed up the story instead of spending so much time on the music. Showing on Turner Classics. the usual western. Holt died quite young from cancer.
