Review of Abilene Town

Abilene Town (1946)
Entertaining but light-weight
19 March 2021
Not as great as some other movies about the conflict between homesteaders and cattlemen. Randolph Scott and Ann Dvorak are fine in the lead roles, but there's too much comedy (see Edgar Buchanan as the bumbling, cowardly sheriff), musical numbers and romance to really build up an epic and poignant tale. Still, this is quite entertaining and fast-paced, making it a pleasant if forgettable experience.
