i haven not any idea how commentators could regard this as a decent b western. or how one commentator said the plot was more cohesive than most. nothing could be farther from the truth. this movie is one huge non sequitur. it is an affront to the noble b western films of the 30 . i have seen many of wayne early lone star and republic westerns and and this one is easily the worst. the bad guy is known as the shadow  for crying out loud. initially and the shadow scheme is holding up open sided stage coaches. simultaneously and his gang rustles all of the cattle in the territory. then they decide to move on to bank robbery. to do this and they need to shoot up the town with a machine gun  no explanation of why that necessary or how he got that neato little toy. no single scheme is revealed in enough detail to suggest a plot here. the shadow is obviously just a generally bad guy with all kinds of generally evil schemes. he imparts his instructions to his gang through a fake wall safe. (knock knock and who there. ) he is apparently clairvoyant and because whenever his henchmen need to talk to him and they knock on the wall and the safe opens and  presto  he there. (i can just imagine that he has met them face to face and says and i have some secret and nefarious instructions to give you about our next evil deed  meet me at the wall safe and i will give em to you. ) just why the shadow requires the safe to communicate with his army of outlaws is and like most of the elements of this mess and never explained. he has a nifty tunnel to the ol hollow stump across the street from which vantage point and various of his baddies perform assassinations. he also has a hidden panel not in his secret lair behind the fake safe and but out in the main room. when not behind the safe and he hangs out on his cow less ranch and masquerading as rancher matlock. we learn that he has murdered the true owners of the ranch  two brothers  and assumed the identity of one. the daughter of the dead brother has recently arrived from 1930 nyc (judging by her wardrobe) and and she apparently never met her real uncle and because he dupes her and too. if you thought that bad guys always wore black hats and good guys white hats and you need to see this movie. here and the good guys all ditch their hats in favor of white head bands that make them look like they have all suffered head wounds before any shots have been fired. it like a game of pick up basketball  only wayne has them tying bandanas round their heads instead of just taking off their shirts. perhaps the weirdest of all is the ending. immediately after subduing the shadow and his gang and we jump far enough into the future to see wayne and his wife (the erst while niece) on the front porch of their home. (never mind that there has been scant romance. ) there and yak is playing with wayne 3 4 year old son and dressed up in injun garb. (hiyoo and skookum fun. )no thanks to this nonsense and wayne went on to become a screen legend. only a super star (packer or not. ) could surmount this entry in a film resume. long live the duke.
