Wissenswertes
The music for 2 of this film's songs was written by Albert von Tilzer. He is better known for being the composer of baseball's most famous song, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame".

Patzer
The final scene begins with a close-up of Lou Gehrig in slippers putting his feet up on the porch. In the next shot (and the rest of the scene), he is wearing boots.

Zitate
First Reporter: I'll bet you a new suit of clothes you'll be in Florida for spring practice.
Second Reporter: Aw, just wait till the old season starts. You'll miss the crowds and the cheering and the excitement.
Lou Gehrig: That's just what I want to get away from. I've had all of that. I'm going to wallow in peace and quiet for the rest of my life. I'm going to hang up my spikes for a swell old pair of carpet slippers.

Lou Gehrig, cowboy

Famed New York Yankees baseball star Lou Gehrig retires and buys a ranch in Montana, Rawhide. He is hoping for the quiet life but soon discovers that a protection racket is being run by a local gang and they expect him to pay up. Luckily Gehrig has an ally in lawyer Larry Kimball.

Accidentally watched this because I wanted to watch the 1951 Rawhide (directed by Henry Hathaway and starring Tyrone Power and Susan Hayward) and Plex misidentified and mistagged the 1938 version as the 1951 version. So instead of a 7.1 on IMDB I get a film that's a 5.6 and instead of Tyrone Power I get Lou Gehrig!

The fact that the film stars Lou Gehrig, superb baseballer but hardly renowned as an actor, sums up why it was made, i.e. To cash in on his fame.

It's as bad as you'd think: weak, predictable plot, unconvincing performances. Just to make it even more cheap and cheesy, it includes some musical numbers!

Not worth watching, even if you are a Lou Gehrig fan.
