Sylvia Scarlett Goes West
This entry in the Tim Holt B western series for RKO takes some inspiration from another gender bending film classic the studio did back in the Thirties, Sylvia Scarlett. Though Jeff Donnell isn't Katharine Hepburn, this film has a few more laughs in it than the normal Holt western where usually the laughs are provided by Richard Martin's amorous intentions.
Thurston Hall and daughter Jeff Donnell are traveling to Arizona for him to check on one of his holdings, a ranch there and for Donnell to get away from some fortune hunter who's been romancing her. That's bad news for Joe Sawyer and a couple of hands there who've been stealing the absentee owner blind. Sawyer should have listened to his two henchmen who said it was time to flee the territory. Instead they set up an ambush to murder Hall.
Bad luck to do it though within hearing range of the stagecoach station that Holt and Martin operate on their ranch. But does a thwarted stage holdup deter Donnell? Not a bad, she's determined to get back to San Francisco and marry her guy. While in town she sneaks away and dons the disguise of a boy and gets on the coach.
No need to tell the rest of the story, it's set up nicely for quite a few laughs as well as the usual gunfights that are required. Stagecoach Kid is definitely one of the better Tim Holt westerns that RKO did and Donnell is quite a good comedienne.
