The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Hayleigh Joseph
This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Screenplay: Rock Hawkey (pseudonym of Bob Hill). Story: Guinn "Big Boy" Williams. Photography: William Hyers. Film editor: Holbrook Todd. Assistant director: Myron Marsh. Sound recording: Cliff Ruberg. Associate producer: Peter E. Kassler. Producers: Max Alexander, Arthur Alexander. Not copyrighted by Beacon Productions, Inc. U.S. release through First Division in 1935 (exact date unknown). No New York opening. Not theatrically released in Australia. 55 minutes. COMMENT: Another inventively scripted and directed "B" western from Bob Hill, this one poses the unusual situation of Williams returning from college to find that his father and three half-brothers earn their living by robbing and plundering — with the added complication that Williams is not only boarding with the local sheriff who has sworn to jail the outlaws, but falls for the sheriff's lovely daughter as well!Williams handles this assignment with more than his usual vigor, performing most of his own acrobatics and stunt-work, including some thrilling fisticuffs a-top a speeding stage-coach. He is most ably supported by John Elliott, in one of his best roles here as the sad-faced badman, plus Steve Clark as the vengeful sheriff, and a wonderful trio of hateful half-brothers in Wally Wales, Ed Cobb and Ace Cain. Full of action and shot against superb locations, this is a movie I can recommend to all western movie buffs.
