Roy and Gale Together!
Another excellent Roy Rogers western giving his fans exactly what they want and expect. This movie has the extra bonus of being one of the 3 movies Roy made with Gale Storm. Aside from his wife, Dale Evans, Gale was Roy's best leading lady. This was before Gale became a star but her talent and beauty and star potential clearly show through.

The Man From Cheyenne
This is a good Rogers Western, but then I haven't seen one I did not like. Good story, good action. Good quality film.
