Review of Blue Steel

I bought a colorized version of this film that had been renamed "Stolen Goods" upon it's DVD release. And I have to say it was one of the better versions I have seen for a 1934 filmed movie. The scenery was wonderful and there was never a dark moment like you get in so many early black and white films. And the ending that made 'riding off in the sunset' come alive. John Wayne and Gabby Hayes, more or less, team up to stop a bunch of villains that is stealing all the transporting of goods making the good people thinking about leaving the town. And when one of the richer man in town says he'll buy the townsfolk land if they wanted to leave- makes you know something may be afoot. This was not that bad of an early "B" western. Plenty of shooting and plenty of riding. Would make for a great afternoon at the theater. With the film being only about 55 minutes long, there is enough action to keep a viewer alert to the very end as two ride into the sunset.
