Quiz
Jed Buell was inspired to make the film when he overheard an employee of his production company, Spectrum Pictures, bemoaning the state of the film business. He said, "If this economy doesn't turn around, we'll have to start making pictures with midgets."

Blooper
When Haines arrives at Preston's ranch, he ties his horse securely to the hitching rail. When he leaves a minute later, he mounts his untied horse.

Citazioni
[first lines]
Master of Ceremonies: Ladies and gentlemen and children of all ages, we're going to present for your approval a novelty picture with an all-midget cast, the first of its kind to ever be produced. I'm told that it has everything, that is, everything that a western should have.

Fun at half the size

This movie has all the classic elements usually found in westerns of the 1930's - 1950's. The dashing hero, the fair damsel in need of rescuing, the despised villain, singing, dancing, the big chase scene. It's all here. But, the one thing that separates this movie from any other western is the cast. 100% midgets. Yep, this entire movie is cast with actors under the height of 4 feet 8 inches, with a couple of fellas who just might make three feet.

The hook of this movie is the fact that it's all midgets. The dialog and actions could be found in any western made in this time period. Nothing is outstanding about this movie, but then nothing is bad about it. It's just something different. Although, you haven't seen a true chase scene until you see a group of guys chasing each other on Shetland ponies.
