Did you know

The character names are changed, but their vocation and role in the story are the same (banker, lawyer, etc.). In the 1937 movie Windy (George 'Gabby' Hayes) and Lucky (Russell Hayden) were Hoppy's sidekicks.

Featured review
Surprised to find this movie is practically a scene-by-scene repeat of the 1937 "Rustlers Valley." Gabby Hayes (Windy) did the part Andy Clyde does here, and Russell Hayden (Lucky) does the Jay Kirby role. William Boyd must've had deja vu. Both are good pictures, but I had no idea the Hoppys reused any of their scripts. Interesting to see a whole new supporting cast in the various roles in the two films. Only Boyd as Hoppy played the same role. Both movies start with Hayden, or Kirby, being chased by a posse and riding off a cliff into a river. He is believed drowned, but survives and gets help from Hoppy and Windy or California in trying to clear himself of a bank robbery accusation.
