The Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend

1949 · 77 min

A zany, Technicolor romp with slapstick gunplay and saucy banter, easy to watch but never quite sparkling.

Tagline
She had the biggest Six-Shooters in the West!!!
Overview
Saloon-bar singer Freddie gets very angry whenever boyfriend Blackie seems to be playing around. She always packs a six-shooter, so this is bad news for anything that happens to be in the way. As this is usually the local judge's rear-end, Freddie and friend Conchita are soon hiding out teaching school in the middle of nowhere.
