Certainly not one of John Wayne's worst films, as one reviewer proclaims, but among his worst performances. After his initial starring role in "The Big Trail" in 1930, Wayne found himself at Columbia and turned in this wooden acting role in "Arizona" along with other pictures and was eventually fired by Harry Cohn. Soon Wayne found himself on poverty row, starring in "His Private Secretary" for Showmen's Pictures in 1933 and a series of westerns for Lone Star Productions released by Monogram Pictures in 1934. His climb back to being a top Hollywood star would take a few years. This film is a cultural significance since it has been released on a DVD set entitled "Columbia Pictures - Pre-Code Collection" along with four other films made in 1931-1932, starring Barbara Stanwyck, Jean Harlow, and Carole Lombard.
