Product Description

Where in blazes is "Smoky" Callaway? The onetime B-Western singing star is riding high via TV airings of his old flicks, but he's been missing for a decade. If he doesn't turn up soon, promotional whiz kids Mike Frye (Fred MacMurray) and Deborah Patterson (Dorothy McGuire) will lose their meal ticket. So they turn up the next best thing, Colorado cowpoke "Stretch" Barnes (Howard Keel), an uncanny lookalike who fills Smoky's boots surprisingly well. But the humble hick could be headed for a fall. Found down Mexico way by his conniving agent (Jesse White), the real Smoky (a second helping of Keel as a boozing Hyde to Stretch's Jekyll) emerges from exile to reclaim his newfound acclaim and income. Cameos from Clark Gable, Elizabeth Taylor and Esther Williams (and a small early role for Stan Freberg) are sprinkled among hilarious observations of branding and celebrity media malarkey in this breezy bauble written, produced and directed by Norman Panama and Melvin Frank (The Court Jester. Li 'l Abner). Crowd-pleasing comedy is this-a-way.

Wonderful quirky movie we stumbled across on TCM one night. Stars Howard Keel, Fred MacMurray, and Dorothy McGuire. Made in 1951 and is good quality.
A takeoff on the old cowboy westerns. About an old cowboy whose a has been, and they’re trying to get him in condition to make a comeback.
All his shenanigans, as they try to rehabilitate him, are hilarious.
Not at all what you’re expecting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good satire of early days of television
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2022

The movie was inspired by the tremendous popularity of Hopalong Casssidy westerns on tv in the early 50’s. At one point, movies starring “Hoppy” might be showing on three stations simultaneously, and cowboy merchandise in the Western hero’s favorite color (black) was hugely popular. All this is well portrayed in the movie. It runs down a bit toward the end, but if you are into ‘50’s Americana, this movie is for you. Go, Hoppy! Ride that hoss!

Good Old-Fashion FUN movie with Howard Keel in a duo role.
Fred MacMurray and Dorothy McGuire also do a good job of acting in their roles.
Pokes fun at the B-Western stars but is never mean-spirited.
Those of who grew watching Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy, and all the others will surely enjoy this movie.
