Star William Eythe only made two more films after this, and died of hepatits at the age of 38. Eythe is "Jeff", oil field worker, who checks up on his old girl friend, and decides to try to get her back. Co-stars the awesome Walter Catlett and Barbara Britton. This one fell into public doman, but the version i saw on Moonlight Movies was actually pretty good condition. It's a Paramount short shortie, at 66 minutes, but they pack a lot into that time. Jeff is determined to show off in the oil fields to win his girlfriend back. It's okay, and since it's a B short film, it's on Moonlight Movies channel. Another Pine Thomas Production, for Paramount. Directed by Frank McDonald, king of the westerns, about half way through his directing career. Pretty solid story, if a little slow-moving.
