Ride 'Em Cowboy

(1942)Directed by Arthur Lubin86 minComedy, Western
“They'd make a horse LAUGH!”

Duke (Bud Abbott) and Willoughby (Lou Costello) sell peanuts at a rodeo show, and they want one thing: to stay out of reach of the boss they've crossed. They hide on a westbound train and talk their way into jobs as cowboys on a dude ranch, though neither knows a horse from a hat rack. Arthur Lubin keeps the pace brisk and the crowd close, treating the dude ranch as a stage for Abbott and Costello's routines.
