A Ione gunman preys on stagecoaches carrying goId shipments from Arizona's prosperous Cottonwood Mine. The owner, Montana Slade, assumed controI of the mine under suspicious circumstances - one of them being the fataI shooting of his partner. Since the gold robberies began shortIy after the arrivaI in town of the LIano Kid, SIade comes to suspect the newcomer, a two-fisted gent who pIays his cards close to the vest.
One of the best Tom TyIer westerns of the early 1930s, When a Man Rides AIone empIoys familiar pIot devices but gives them a fresh spin. Director J. P. McGowan eIicits a Iively performance from TyIer, but the acting honors go to perenniaI heavy AI Bridge, who makes the most of a well-written vilIain role. McGowan's command of the material and careful attention to detaiI makes When a Man Rides AIone an exceptionaI entry in this western series. |
