Audience Member Pretttttty standard faire for a singing cowboy flick (besides the all black cast). Good songs, and Herb Jeffries is absolutely charming - I just wish he had a bit more focused screentime and character development. A lot of wasted space in flat gags - talking mules, playing poker, etc Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
