Subject: The Phantom Actor
How this cowboy got a job in movies I will never know... the man who plays the Phantom Cowboy is SO bad, that you will NOT believe your ears whe he delivers his dialog.
OH MY GOOSNESS! He IS bad.

Subject: Which one are you?
Rather confusing tale about a cowboy and his double (who at first uses a cape to pull of robberies!) and how they get together with a brother and sister team to foil the bad guys in this town. The sister becomes a penny dancer, and his brother becomes sort of a shady character. I am not really 100% sure of what the heck happens, because this was all out confusing for some odd reason. Needless to say, they clean up the town of course for the required happy ending, which is all that matters
Although this was one of the most confusing movies Ive seen in a long while, the acting here is pretty good, and the twin brother scenes done by the one actor are pretty convincing, so that just barely made it watchable.

Surely the life story of the producer and writer of this film deserves hollywood film biography..It is totally unique. In a career from 1922 to 1936, Ronald J Horner made 36 very low budget western westerns, many of which he wrote.But it iss how that is fascinating. He was born with NO LEGS and in adult life , invented a wn electric car which enabled to get around. He was a *fly by night* producer who was arrested several times for not returning money to aspiring actresses who invested on his promise of roles in his films. Of this film, i quote his advertising * glorious scenic splendour of the west...a drama that will linger in the memory of all who see it* BELIEVE OR NOT but I enjoyed the film , even though it has no artisti c qualities. I think had fun making this movie
