Bob Steele - Sundown Saunders

[@CamHiggins-k4n]

I started watching Bob Steele movies on TV back in the 50's on WSB TV in Atlanta. He was my favorite of all. I'm binging on him right now and I love the way he fights and rides and never quits. He epitomizes the ideals of the America I grew up with. Keep 'em coming!

I started watching Bob Steel a few weeks ago,in fact until then ,I did not recall hearing about him. But having said that, I think he is up there ,with Roy and Bill and with all other good cowboys.

Indeed, and with Buck and Tim and several others. They all had a certain individualized manner, and even when they didn't, their support team (often the bad guys) did a memorable job of propping up the story. The term 'horse opera' may seem to be derisive, but it is pretty accurate, except for some of those warblers who would be better off sticking to their guns, literally!

I think my favorite was Hoot Gibson.

This is one of my favorite Bob Steele movies. And I wish he had kept the movie screen name of 'Sundown Saunders'; I really like that name and it would have fit him perfectly for all of his movies. It makes you wonder if that's where they got the idea for the Hollywood name of 'Sunset Carson' who became the next generation B western movie star. It is understandable why they chose to give 'Sunset Carson' a new Hollywood screen name. His real name was 'Winifred Maurice Harrison'. He was a rodeo star who became a western movie star, like a lot of other movie cowboys who started out as rodeo stars or stunt men. The funny thing is that Bob Steele did change his real name. His real name was Robert Adrian Bradbury, but went by 'Bob', and in the beginning of his career was sometimes billed as Bob Bradbury Jr., after his famous father, Raymond Bradbury who was an actor but became more famous as a director who directed 198 films.

Steele is like watching a combination of an Eagle Scout, Charles Bronson and Billy Dee Williams, and the stories and recurring cast are all real cool.

Boss Frank Ball doesn't like slackers so Bob Steele heads for greener pastures with sidekick Milburn Morante and meets Marie Burton along the way. He runs headlong into a who's who of great early western actors with Charles King, Earl Dwire, Jack Rockwell, Ed Cassidy, Frank Ball and Hal Price.

What other actor played a character named Sundown Saunders? There is no prize for a correct answer. He was shot, not fatally, by Harry Carey playing Tucson Smith. Bob Steele also played Tucson Smith in a later movie.

*PLOT:* While gambling, Sundown Saunders (Bob Steele) wins the deed to a fertile tract of land and decides to settle down as a rancher. Along the way, he meets Bess Preston (Catherine Cotter), a sheepherder's daughter who, it turns out, was sold rights to the same piece of land. Arriving in town, Sundown tries to get to the bottom of the phony deeds, but crosses Sheriff Baker (Earl Dwire) and winds up a wanted man. He will have to break up the local crime ring if he is to clear his name.
