Two-Gun Mickey
0 views
Minnie rides into town and takes a large sack of money out of the bank. Pegleg Pete gathers his gang to take it from her, and they chase her out of town. Lonesome cowboy Mickey, who met Minnie earlier and was told she could take care of herself, sees this chase unfolding from his high perch, and rides down to save the day.
★★★☆☆
Curator’s rating
A full-scale Western with Pete leading a gang against Minnie, and one of the more ambitious action shorts of the mid-1930s — the horse chase is staged with real geography. Mickey as the lonesome cowboy is a persona the studio tried out several times and never quite kept.
A Western with an extended gunfight, played for comedy.
