Summary: "Cattle or Sheep??"

This movie is one of "Americas Favorite Singing Cowboys" earlier pictures. Produced in 1937 and showing the great potential of this cowboy star. Along with the comedy of Smiley Burnette, Gene tries to convince a young heiress played by Polly Rowles that ranching is not for her when upon arrival she implements the use of modern animal husbandry. Gene uses trickery and red paint to persuade the young lady that her sheep are sick in hopes of sending her packing!! After all, this was cattle country and sheep were not welcome. Upon falling somewhat under the magic spell of this young lady decides that she's not so bad after all....In turn saves the ranch and the pretty young lady from all of her cattlemen neighbors intent on running her out of business and back to the east. Great story lines and a role well played by the Cowboy in the White Hat!! Great songs like "The Moon and I" and the famous "You're the Only Star in My Blue Heaven." Watch this movie for a look and listen to the melodious voice of the Mr. Gene Autry, Americas Favorite Singing Cowboy!!!!
