Ride 'Em Cowboy

Moviecut—Ride 'Em Cowboy

Possibly the best scene in this light comedy with nice songs clever script and funny scenes as the Indian chase.I put it next to their big hit ''Frankenstein''.

Abbott & Costello play Duke & Willoughby, two peanut/hot dog vendors who get into big trouble with their boss at a rodeo, and so hitch a ride out of town with a bunch of cows(!) and find themselves at a dude ranch, where they get jobs, even though they know nothing about horses or the west. Willoughby gets in trouble with a local Native tribe over a misunderstanding, and must dodge the repeated arrows of an angry father. Meanwhile, a singing cowboy named "Bronco Bob" Mitchell(played by Dick Foran), and cowgirl named Anne Shaw(played by Anne Gwynne) have a bumpy romance. Disappointing comedy has mostly tired or dated gags that aren't that funny, with tedious and overbearing songs, though the "Crazy House" skit is a highlight.
