Summary:
Western great 'Wild Bill' Elliott sauntered into the Fifties at the top of his Cowboy game and soon signed up at a new studio, Monogram Pictures (soon to become Allied Artists). Along with his two-fists, six guns and ramrod righteousness, Wild Bill brought something else to bear on this series of Westerns, brain matter. Themes and ideas sprinkled throughout this run include cross-breeding cattle, civic redemption, the limits of familial obligation and more.
