Back in the day when westerns were just ground out by the minor studios in Hollywood a background in country music was always the path to a career as a singing cowboy. Such was the case for Jimmy Wakely who was just coming off a cross over hit with Margaret Whiting in the pop hit parade, Slipping Around. Cowboy Cavalier was one of several films he made as a cowboy hero. Although he was no actor, Wakely had some nice notes in his voice.
Here with Dub Taylor as sidekick who has a photography hobby Wakely works running a freight line. No good ex-convict Douglas Evans comes to work and starts romancing the boss's daughter Jan Bryant. Going out of his way not to get his picture taken should be setting off alarm bells, but not at first.
This one looks like Sam Katzman butchered it in the cutting room. But people who watched this stuff were used to filling in the gaps in films like Cowboy Cavalier.
