John Wayne two for one
A double dose of John Wayne for the price of one is a great idea to me. Flame of the Barbary Coast is a film from Wayne's time at Republic Studios. While it will not replace anyone's favorite Duke film it is a fun time. The plot is not the most original but I recommend this one. Wayne comes to town, losses his bankroll to a crooked casino and then fights back. He opens his own casino and steals the girl (of course there is a girl) from the bad guy. Throw in the San Francisco earthquake and you've got a movie. After all that you get a second feature. Looks like its a bargain.
