Still from the movie The Tenderfoot.

The Tenderfoot (WB, 1932)

A cowboy comes to the big city to turn his cash into more wealth, and he becomes the target of unscrupulous Broadway producers. Fortunately, he has their secretary looking out for him, but will the two be able to make for a successful show … particularly when the other partners want out and a gang wants a payoff? This is a good, albeit slight, vehicle for Brown’s broad mannerisms, with a perhaps-surprising lack of much in the way of a musical performance by Rogers.

  Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK, but not great.

Movie 489 for 2021.
