I read ashew's comment and thought they must have been watching an entirely different picture!

I just watched the film this morning and was quite surprised.

To address ashew's comments:

Trail Street is a very well done western.

And Randolph Scott was in it quite a bit!

Gabby Hayes was funnier than I've ever seen him!

The bad guys had very good comeuppances as far as I was concerned.

Plus:

It was interesting to see Robert Ryan as a straight-laced good guy - he's usually so slimy.

In all, a good western, very well acted and written.

I liked the background story of Kansas and the "winter wheat" that supposedly helped it become a state, too.

I thought the girl who played Susan was lovely - can't think why she didn't become a bigger star!
