Within the first ten minutes the players are well established in their usual rolls. The standard indignant revenge motive is uncorked for our hero's actions (hey, Hollywood still uses it today as the premise for a large sect of it's movies). And we all settle in for expected happy ending.
What's good about this movie is the method of vindication used by our hero. He's not going to catch the bad guys in the act and have justice run its course (all hail good over evil). He's going to arrange events so as to let the villains do themselves in one at a time. *(SPOILER WARNING) With each successive death he wipes their names and chalk likeness off a wall. *(END WARNING)
Dick Foran's voice is very good and he keeps the musical interludes down to a respectable number. The way the story is presented is believable by the viewer. Add this one to your early Western classics, and you won't be sorry.
