Hit the Saddle (1937)

 




This is a real "horse opera"- that's what these oaters were called when I was a kid. So, catch those thundering four-footed herds as they charge down gulleys and across fields. Then there's the culminating battle between the two boss stallions for head horse of the herd. The Three Mesquiteers are here, but the focus is really on those wild equines that rivet audience eyes.

So, can our stalwart threesome stop rancher MacGowan from disguising his violent stallion Volcano as leader of the protected, wild herd. To do that, he'll have to replace good stallion Pinto as head horse. After all, MacGowan just wants to sell the herd for a big profit, maybe even for slaughter. So, if Volcano can get the herd to do enough damage to towns men, they'll lose protected status. Thus, it's a showdown not just between guys but between big strong critters, as well. So stay tuned.

(In passing - catch the lovely Rita Hayworth in an early film and before her hairline was cosmetically lifted, which in true Hollywood fashion became her ticket to big time movie stardom. So see what you think.)
