    A Cowboy in Gower Gulch

    When Buck Jones talks movie star Dorothy Revier off a runaway horse, shoots some bank robbers and then tells some tall tales, he finds himself believed and in Hollywood -- until it turns out he can't fly a plane and has to beat it out of town.

    This comic western is given the class treatment, with director George Seitz wielding the megaphone and Teddy Tetzlaff behind the camera. There's a plethora of good stunts, not only on horseback, but with racing cars and biplanes.

    If Buck's line reading seems a trifle stiff, that's appropriate to the character. His physical acting is as good as it was in silent days. Miss Revier is also good as is Eddie Kane as the enthusiastic studio head.

    An excellent B-movie--one of Buck Jones' best.

    Despite being killed at age 50, cowboy actor Buck Jones managed to make over 150 films. He was incredibly prolific...and most of this is due to the sorts of cheap B-westerns he usually made. They were made fast and often one after the other. A few are very good...and "The Thrill Hunter" is among his best that I've seen...mostly because it's NOT a typical cowboy picture.

    When the story begins, a Hollywood actress is in trouble when her horse is out of control. Acting quickly, Buck is able to save her. Later, when he has dinner with the lady and the crew, he regales them with all sorts of lies about his supposed exploits. The problem is that they DO believe him--that he was a top pilot and race car driver. His heroism is solidified when he claims credit for killing two wanted bandits. The truth is, he came to their cabin just as they shot each other....and Buck claimed credit as well as the reward!

    Once in Hollywood, Buck is able to fake his way through part of the picture but ultimately he's proven to be a big bag of wind. Disheartened, he returns west hoping to put all this behind him. Little did he realize that he really IS an action hero....and he soon gets the chance to prove himself.

    This is a very fun movie. But in addition to being enjoyable, it's such a wonderful change of pace for Jones that I couldn't help but love the film....and a score of 8 is tremendous for a simple B-movie.

    Worth Watching for the Studio Stuff

    Thrill Hunter (1933)

    ** 1/2 (out of 4)

    Decent "B" movie has Buck Jones playing cowboy Buck Crosby who is pretty much a man who can't stop lying or at least telling wild, over-the-top stories. One day a film crew comes to his neck of the woods and he manages to get leading lady Marjorie Lane (Dorothy Revier) to believe these stories. He ends up back in Hollywood because of all these wild stories but it doesn't take long before the studio realizes that he's been lying. THRILL HUNTER is a pretty weird movie to say the least but I think film buffs will find it interesting simply because it gives one a behind-the-scenes look at a small studio back in the early sound era. Some of the best moments happen once in Hollywood and the cowboy gets on the movie studio and starts to deal with various departments. We get to see some of the dressing rooms, sets and also scenes of how movies were shot and how the sound was recorded. These moments here probably weren't that big of a deal back in the day but getting to see them together is pretty neat. As for the story, it's mildly interesting but at the same time there's no question that it's pretty stupid. It's hard to believe that this Crosby character could have fooled everyone but I guess this is taking the story a bit too serious. If you can just sit back and enjoy what the film offers then you should stay entertained throughout the 55-minute running time. Both Jones and Revier are good in their roles and I also thought Edward LeSaint was good as the film director.

    Amusing and easy-to-take 55-minute movie

    I was unfamiliar with Buck's movies until I saw this on TCM this morning. All I had known before was that he had been a popular cowboy star who died in a famous fire at the Coconut Grove. This tale about a blow-hard who winds up capturing the heart of a movie starlet and gets whisked to Hollywood is little more than a live-action cartoon. But, I've always enjoyed good cartoons and this one is easy to take.

    Here he has to make good on all the things he said he could do. The bits with him trying to fake being experienced at race car driving and flying are amusing. Jones' affable charm move the events along. The direction is rather primitive, using reaction-shot techniques from the silent era. But, that's also part of the fun. I glad I spent an hour with The Thrill Hunter this morning. I enjoyed his company.

    Unusual role gives Buck Jones chance to show he was an actor

    He was always accepted as a hero, in part because he looked and fit the part, and maybe acting ability was not expected because it was not needed, but, in "The Thrill Hunter," Buck Jones shows he could act.

    His leading lady should have become a major star. I don't know the whole story as to why she didn't. It wasn't for lack of looks or ability, but some people just don't have the luck or timing.

    A fair number of other players also show that Columbia, the Poverty Row denizen, could turn out a quality picture even with a low budget.

    Watch especially for the ubiquitous Hank Bell in a delicious part. Far too often Mr. Bell got no screen credit, and often didn't even get any lines.

    Usually movies about movies exaggerate and trivialize the production, but this movie looks pretty realistic -- for a movie -- in its movie- making.

    Again, all the smaller-role players are just about perfection, with no hamminess, no mugging, just genuine acting.

    The story runs about as, I guess, we would expect, and the one flaw I found was in one climactic scene of pistol-shooting, but watch the movie. No spoiler here.

    There is a first-class print at YouTube, excellent quality, but it is rudely (and unforgivably) interrupted by commercials. Commercials are bad enough, but these are popped in not just in the middle of a scene, but sometimes in the middle of a sentence. Terrible.

    The good news is that when the movie picks back up, it starts at a point before the rude interruption.

    I highly recommend "The Thrill Hunter," and thank my friend ZL for telling me about it.

    • Anecdotes
      One of over 100 Columbia features, mostly Westerns, sold to Hygo Television Films in the 1950s, which marketed them under the name of Gail Pictures; opening credits were redesigned, with some titles misspelled, the credit order of the players rearranged, some names misspelled, and new end titles attached, thus eliminating any evidence of their Columbia roots. Apparently, the original material was not retained in most of the cases, and the films have survived, even in the Sony library, only with these haphazardly created replacement opening and end credits.

      When Buck crashes the plane, in one shot the left wings of the biplane are destroyed, but in the next shot they are largely intact.
