Overland Stage Raiders - 1938 - 6/10
Fast moving, “modern” Western finds bandits ambushing gold shipments.
The Three Mesquiteers pool local resources and buy an airplane for shipping.
The bandits ain’t dumb, however, so expect shoot-ups and chases.
Early John Wayne vehicle, high on action, low on plot.
Fare that used to be after-school staples.
Final role for Silent icon, Louise Brooks.
Small world, Hollywood, in that both she and Clara Bow knew Wayne.
