Wall Street Cowboy is a 1939 American Western film directed by Joseph Kane and starring Roy Rogers.
[1] Wall Street stock marketeers try to swindle Roy Rogers out of his ranch, when molybdenum, a valuable mineral is discovered on the property, which the villains plan to use for their steel-mining activities.
Leonard Maltin wrote, "engaging Western with two sidekicks (Hayes and Hatton) touches upon Depression-era subjects of corrupt banking institutions and foreclosures; fun to watch Roy riding in a steeplechase and singing in a nightclub (wearing a coat and tie)";[2] and Dennis Schwartz wrote, "this Roy Rogers film had an undeserved bad reputation.
I actually found it to be one of his better B Westerns, it was at least up to par with the typical Rogers action-packed oater except that the singing cowboy only sang a few songs.
Joseph Kane ("The Arizona Kid"/"Jesse James at Bay"/"Frontier Pony Express") directs in his usual credible fashion and it's ably written by Gerald Geraghty and Norman S.
