Rough Guys and Dames

This is the first of two movies that Preston Foster and Wayne Morris starred in for Columbia. In both they played rough-and-tough buddies, like Spencer Tracy & Clark Gable for MGM or Jimmy Cagney & Pat O'Brien for Warners a decade and a half earlier. They've even got Frank McHugh, who often played Cagney's stooge, as Foster's chief cook and bottle washer.

In this one, Foster and Morris are a couple of Big Timber men. Foster owns a logging site, but there's a dame, of course. Foster is married to Kay Buckley, a blonde who likes her comforts and wants Foster to sell out to the big combine.

There's the usual combination of casual rowdy behavior that typifies this sort of movie and there's nothing done that isn't competent. On the other hand, there isn't much that's particularly noteworthy. The result is a decent time-killer.
