(1947,Republic) Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, Andy Devine, John McGuire, Dave Sharpe. In Color and Uncut! Roy is an investigator who is joined by Dale (a western novel writer) in a search for border smugglers. Also assisting Roy is a jovial county sheriff played by Andy Devine. Several Mexican nationals have been murdered on the American side of the U.S./Mexico border. The atrocities have all happened in and around a silver mine run by John McGuire and David Sharpe. Roy and Dale soon end up on the scene, where Roy gets clobbered by the smugglers (especially Dave Sharpe). Great fun with a good dose of action, songs, and laughs. Transferred from a very nice 16mm original color print.
