Poster for the movie Under Texas Skies

Under Texas Skies (1930)

Early talkie western has only modest appeal. A gang leader (Tom London) takes the place of a kidnapped Army procurement officer (Bill Cody) in a plot to steal some horses that are being sold to the military, and it falls on the protagonist (Bob Custer) to try to sort things out. Lane Chandler does well in a supporting role, and the bad guys project a suitable amount of menace, but the whole is very static and beyond the abilities of much of the cast, including the lead.

  Not recommended. Otto thinks you should avoid this movie.

Movie 344 for 2021.
