Honeymooning reporter Don Barry and photographer Marjorie Steele work a story about modern-day (for 1949) cattle rustlers by joining the gang.
It's an interesting idea, and director William Beaudine sprinkles comic actors throughout, Sid Melton as part of the gang, sounding like a Catskills tummeler as always, and Iris Adrian. This being intended for Lippert, it's clear that no great amount of money was spent, although there are the usual interesting performers doing a good job for a paycheck, like Steve Brodie, Marc Lawrence (as a hoodlum, of course), and even a bit by Dewey Robinson.
The movie has an interesting deep-focus look to it; apparently cinematographer Benjamin Kline used Garutso lenses, and it shows. Barry explodes into fistfights a couple of times, and Miss Steele has quirky good looks that grow on you. Huntington Hartford agreed. The A&P heir met her when she was a teenager, signed her to a movie contract, and married her when she was 19. She only made four movies in all, but had some real success on stage. She died in 2018 at the age of 87.
