BELLS OF SAN ANGELO

Cinemavixion Review

William Witney's "Bells of San Angelo" from 1947 offers a classic slice of Roy Rogers western fare, set against the backdrop of the Mexican border. The narrative, which involves the discovery of a silver mine and the pursuit of smugglers, is capably handled, showcasing the familiar charm of Rogers and his trusty steed, Trigger. Dale Evans provides a capable co-star, adding to the film's appeal. While the plot might tread familiar ground for the genre, the production values and the iconic presence of its stars make it a worthwhile watch for fans of traditional Westerns. The film effectively blends action with a touch of musicality, characteristic of its era and leading man, delivering a solid, if predictable, adventure.
