Trivia
This is one of 54 Hopalong Cassidy features produced by Harry Sherman, initially distributed by Paramount Pictures from 1935-1941, and then by United Artists 1942-1944, which were purchased by their star William Boyd for nationally syndicated television presentation beginning in 1948 and continuing thereafter for many years, as a result of their phenomenal success. Each feature was re-edited to 54 minutes so as to comfortably fit into a 60 minute time slot, with six minutes for commercials. It was not until 50 years later that, with the cooperation of Mrs. Boyd. i.e. Grace Bradley, that they were finally restored to their original length with their original opening and closing credits intact.

Hopalong tames a British harpy and fights s bad guy named scar!

This was my first Hopalong Cassidy film and it was easy to see why "Hoppy" has such a big following. Hoppy works on a ranch and the owner, a spoiled opinionated woman named Lorna Drake visits for the first time and these two get along like oil and water. Hoppy is joined on the ranch by Lucky and Baldy...they end up having a face off with bad guy Scar Lewis and his gang, but the real story is the battle of wills between Hoppy and Lorna.

Classic western in that the good guy rides a white horse, but I couldn't help wishing for a good old fashioned spanking ala John Wayne!

"Men who look like ornaments on a croquet court." (Reference to bow-legged cowboys)

"Any bronc that's worthwhile is worth the trouble taming. "-Hoppy.
