Poster for the movie Ride 'Em Cowgirl

Ride ‘Em Cowgirl (1939)

The last of Dorothy Page’s starring westerns for Grand National may be the best of the lot, as she seems more active throughout, making a daring escape at gunpoint and directly confronting the head crook, for example. Vince Barnett returns as comic relief, this time with a female counterpart. Milton Frome is rather lackluster as the leading man, playing a lineman (as is Barnett) who gets caught up in events — but why is he so willing to help unquestioningly a woman on the run?

  Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK.
