Poster for Partners (RKO Radio, 1932).

3049  Partners of the Plains  Paramount, 1938. 70 min. D: Lesley Selander. SC: Harrison Jacobs. With William Boyd, Russell Hayden, Gwen Gaze, Harvey Clark, Hilda Plowright, John Warburton, Alan Bridge, Al Hill, Earle Hodgins, John Beach, Jim Corey, Bud McClure, Herman Hack, Hank Bell. Hoppy and the Bar 20 boys attempt to help a snobbish young lady by saving her cattle and land from the evil Scar Lewis. Well photographed and entertaining entry in the “Hopalong Cassidy” series.

3050  Partners of the Sunset  Monogram, 1948. 53 min. D: Lambert Hillyer. SC: J. Benton Cheney. With Jimmy Wakely, Dub Taylor, Christine Larson, Steve Darrell, Marshall Reed, Jay Kirby, Leonard Penn, Bob Woodward, Carl Mathews, Carl Sepulveda, J.C. Lytton, Boyd Stockman, Arthur “Fiddlin‘“ Smith, Don Weston. A woman plans to murder her husband but the plot is uncovered by a singing cowboy. Mystery element and songs help this otherwise laggard Jimmy Wakely feature.

3051  Partners of the Trail  Monogram, 1931. 63 min. D: Wallace Fox. SC: G.A. Durlam. With Tom Tyler, Betty Mack, Lafe McKee, Reginald Sheffield, Pat Rooney, Alan Bridge, Stanley Blystone, Marguerite McWade, Horace B. Carpenter, Jack Richardson, C.V. Bussey. A man kills his wife’s lover only to have his buddy convicted of the crime. Very low grade Tom Tyler outing; remade as Sagebrush Trail (q.v.).

3052  Partners of the Trail  Monogram, 1944. 59 min. D: Lambert Hillyer. SC: Frank Young. With Johnny Mack Brown, Raymond Hatton, Christine McIntyre, Craig Woods, Robert Frazer, Lloyd Ingraham, Marshall Reed, Jack Ingram, Lynton Brent, Steve Clark, Ben Corbett, Ted Mapes, Joe Eggerton, Hal Price, Slim Whitaker, Wally West, Chick Hannon, Al Taylor, Kanasa Moehring, Bill Wolfe. Two lawmen ride to a small town to discover why ranchers are being murdered and uncover a plot to obtain a rich gold claim. Well written “Nevada Jack McKenzie” series production.

3053  Passage West  Paramount, 1951. 81 min. Color. D-SC: Lewis R. Foster. With John Payne, Dennis O’Keefe, Arleen Whelan, Frank Faylen, Mary Anderson, Peter Hansen, Richard Rober, Griff Barnett, Dooley Wilson, Mary Field, Richard Travis, Mary Beth Hughes, Arthur Hunnicutt, Lillian Bronson, Ilka Gruning, Estelle Carr, Susan Whitney, Walter Reed, Paul Fierro, Clint Stuart, Earle Hodgins, Howard Negley, Victor Kilian, Kit Guard, Guy Wilkerson, Tim Graham, Hank Mann. A half dozen escaped convicts take refuge in a wagon train belonging to a religious sect heading West. Average oater, but well produced.

3054  Passion  RKO Radio, 1954. 84 min. Color. D: Allan Dwan. SC: Josepth Leytes, Beatrice A. Dresher and Howard Estabrook. With Cornel Wilde, Yvonne De Carlo, Raymond Burr, Lon Chaney, John Qualen, Rodolfo Acosta, Anthony Caruso, Frank De Kova, Peter Coe, Clayton Moore, John Dierkes, Richard Hale, Rosa Turich, Stuart Whitman, James Kirkwood, Robert Warwick, Belle Mitchell, Alex Montoya, Zon Murray, Gil Frye, Rozene Kemper. In Spanish California a man learns his wife and daughter have been murdered by a land hungry Army officer and his thugs and he teams with his pretty sister-in-law to get revenge. Interesting, violent Western with good work by Yvonne De Carlo in dual roles and Lon Chaney as the vicious henchman Castro; concluding gunfight sequence in the snowy Sierras is a knockout.
