Poster for the movie The Gunman from Bodie

The Gunman from Bodie (Monogram, 1941)

In the second of the entertaining series of Rough Riders movies from Monogram starring Buck Jones, Tim McCoy, and Raymond Hatton, Buck poses as a wanted killer, with Tim as the marshal on his trail, while Sandy (Raymond Hatton) works as a cook, all to foil a criminal plan to gain water rights for a pittance. Along the way, the trio helps out an orphaned baby as well. Not as strong as the first entry in the series, but the appeal of the three stars is substantial.

  Recommended. Otto finds this one pleasing enough to relax.

Movie 195 for 2021.
