The Lawless Nineties

THE LAWLESS NINETIES
All these westerns were made before the hit"STAGECOACH".I have them all.But now their being re-release for to much money..like $15.00 or $19.00.I am a 100% JOHN WAYNE FAN..however these are his low budget..poor sound westerns in the early 1930's.However I will say..the rerelease of his..THREE MESQUITEERS adventures are good.Music background keeps the action going.But all of his other pre westerns such as "The Lawless Nineties'you won't want to pay that kind of price for sure.When they came out on vhs..they were like $8.00. Then they put them out on dvd a few years ago....no different today.Except...The THREE MESQUITEERS was pretty good.And for that high price..these wsterns(all)run just under 1-hour each.For that price it's not fair. Thankyou J.R.

Deadly growing pains in Wyoming Territory
A large number of John Wayne's pre-STAGECOACH programmers are widely circulated public domain product. THE LAWLESS NINETIES is not among these.

SYNOPSIS--
Wyoming Territory natives John Tipton (Wayne) and his partner Bridges (Chandler) are Justice Dept. agents who've been sent to their native area to monitor an all-important statehood vote. By using dynamite and other means, certain unscrupulous men have already gone to great lengths to terrorize honest local ranchers, homesteaders and merchants interested in joining the Union. It's Tipton's and Bridger's job to prevent such intimidation and make a fair vote possible.

Major Carter (Hayes in an atypical Southern sophisticate role), accompanied by daughter Janet (Rutherford), are escorted by Tipton to Crockett City from Virginia. Carter wants to start a newspaper to replace one that ceased operation after its editor was murdered. Bridges is shot in the back and killed, and the major is also mortally wounded...
