Audience Member An earlier Tom Mix film that has everything you need: Girls, Gun & Villains. Tom Mix was the biggest name in Western years before John Wayne claimed the title. Mix play an immigration officer trying to stop a group of bandits illegally immigrating Chinese men for labour. This film has two things that really should be commended. 1) the amazing stunt work that Tom Mix does himself 2) the sensational aerial photography of the Grand Canyon. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
