Review :

An oddity that spawned a TV series.

Michael Curtiz must have been able to knock these undemanding programmers out in his sleep by 1953. In this one he's given Will Rogers Jr. to deal with. Rogers is an amiable enough type but he's definitely no romantic leading man. In fact, he looks as if he should have a stalk of corn protruding from the corner of his mouth and his hat pushed far back on top of his head. He plays a sasparilla-drinking stranger in this one. Drifting into a town run by a suitably devilish looking but outwardly amenable bad guy who swears Rogers in as sheriff because he thinks the gangly stranger will cause him no problems. Of course, he gets that wrong…

The Boy from Oklahoma is an agreeable enough time-waster if you're in the mood. The highlight is probably Lon Chaney Jr in a tiny role as a bible-spouting drunk who comes staggering into town to shoot it up. Rogers, who never carries a gun, manages to persuade him to accompany him to the cells after describing them as a refuge from Chaney's domineering wife. Later, he has to deal with Billy the Kid who makes an odd kind of cameo appearance before flouncing off after Rogers refuses to pick up a gun to fight him. Nancy Olson provides the romantic leading lady, and even dressed down she's way out of Rogers' league, but he ends up wearing her dad's boots anyway.

It's an oddity, and an unassuming one, but it's worth watching if you're feeling lazy and the remote is out of reach.
