TEX RIDES WITH THE BOY SCOUTS

Cinemavixion Review

Released in 1937, "Tex Rides with the Boy Scouts" is a Western that sees the charismatic Tex Ritter in pursuit of a gang responsible for a daring train robbery involving a significant gold shipment. Directed by Ray Taylor, the film meticulously follows Tex's investigation as he zeroes in on Dorman, suspecting him of harboring the stolen gold at his mine. The plot thickens when a witness, Stubby, spots Dorman's associate cashing in gold nuggets, prompting Tex to cleverly maneuver Dorman into relocating the loot. This strategic move aims to facilitate the capture of the culprits with the combined efforts of a posse and the local Boy Scout Troop, adding a unique community element to the classic Western pursuit. While the film garnered a modest 5.1 rating on IMDb, its straightforward narrative and Tex Ritter's familiar presence offer a slice of vintage Western entertainment.
