Movie Info

This western marks the screen farewell of much-loved cowboy-star Gene Autry. It tells the story of the last few days of the Pony Express, which has been outmoded by the advent of the telegraph and the increasing popularity of stagecoaches. Autry is trying to set up his own stage line for mail delivery, but finds himself opposed by an avaricious banker who will stop at nothing to have the line for himself.

This is the film singing cowboy Gene Autry rides off into the sunset as far as making movies, as he will now only be on television.
