    • Goofs
      Very awkward (and obvious) scene cut when Lance Regan rolls the barrel Cannonball is in, and the barrel rolls under a wagon and breaks apart.
    • Quotes

      Cannonball: [after the prison guard has mistaken Cannonball for one of the prison inmates out working] Wait a minute, mister. You - you're messed up, I don't work here.

      Joe - Prison Guard: [sarcastically] Oh, you don't work here - got a permit from the warden, just visiting.

      Cannonball: Yes sir, that's right.

      Joe - Prison Guard: Come on!

      Cannonball: Wait, mister, you're all mixed up, I told you.

      Joe - Prison Guard: You give me any more argument and you'll get ten days in solitary!

      Cannonball: I don't play solitaire, mister, I'm a blackjack man.

    A bad, bad man.....
    Lance Regan (Douglas Evans) is a bad, bad man.

    This is obvious from the outset: not only does he sport a thin moustache - a B western giveaway if ever there was one - but he refuses to be photographed by comic sidekick Cannonball Taylor and, horror of horrors, actually sneers a little as Jimmy Wakely sings his first number.

    No surprise then that, later in the movie, he ill-treats a horse and gets a whopping from Jimmy for his trouble.

    There are chases, fist fights and shoot-outs: Jimmy sings three songs and Cannonball falls into the horse trough.

    As a bonus there's a good performance from Claire Whitney as wicked Regan's blackmail victim: she really acts! I liked it very much.
