Touches You
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Famed Singing Cowboy actor Rex Allen stars in this well-made actioner from the waning days of the B-western. The Arizona Cowboy appears as a US Marshal who rides into town to head off a feared scam involving an oil strike and greedy scalawags bent on robbery & murder !Rex is great in this one, with Slim Pickens and Koko the wonder horse along to aid him in this memorable sagebrush saga. Rex displays his rich baritone voice, flying fists and action skills in this fun film.There were many singing cowboys in the Post-WWII era,with Rex Allen being one of the absolute best. I enjoyed this one and recommend it for all those fans of the Saturday matinées of yesteryear. Happy Trails !
