Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaProducer Harry Sherman, making Paramount' s "Stagecoach War", had more than half the riders in Hollywood on location near Kernville , CA. These included Cliff Parkinson, Art Felix, Clem Fuller and Dean Spencer, all known as "dead falls". They are men who can fall from a, horse and make it appear that they've been shot, a feat that sounds easy but is really difficult to perform. They get $25 a fail. Sherman declared that this quartet of riders compose more than one-third of the cowboys in Hollywood who can perform the feat without hobbling the horse.

Featured review
Stagecoach War
Stagecoach War features veteran character actor J. Farrell McDonald as Jeff Chapman, a stage-line owner about to lose a lucrative Wells Fargo contract after his driver is shot in a holdup. The crime opens a door for Neal Holt (Harvey Stephens), who is not only a rival stage-line operator, but also the former boyfriend of Jeff's daughter, Shirley (Julie Carter).
There's many musical numbers, with singing cowboys and outlaws and there is a exciting Stagecoach chase, however it's not too engaging and the love triangle between Lucky, Shirley and shirley's ambitious former boyfriend doesn't add much in terms of drama. I guess it's a different type of Hoppy with not too much shootin', and the good guys (who I thought were harmless singers as presented in these type of westerns) turning out the bad guys but not too memorable.
