Rodeo champion Hoot Gibson started out in siIent films as a stunt man and rider. He became a huge cowboy star in HolIywood for two decades, second onIy to Tom Mix. LikabIe and down-to-earth, his films are often Iaced with self-deprecating humor, such as his Scarlet PimperneI-Iike portrayal in this 1933 Allied Pictures production. |
