|
VCI Entertainment and Supreme Pictures present "Branded a Coward" (1935) (digitally remastered), long running Johnny Mack Brown series turned out in the early '30s...the storyline is not your normal or regular Johnny Mack Brown film, as half way through the picture our hero acts like a coward...witnessing his family being killed by "The Cat", a notorious outlaw gang...20 years pass and he still has bad memories of that event, as outlaws rob a local saloon and he hides behind the bar shaking...will our hero snap out of this during a stage holdup and save the girl from a runaway and the loot...does Syd Saylor give Johnny Mack the big build up and have him elected marshall...will he learn that "The Cat" is behind the lawless events in the territory...is there going to be a final showdown that will suprise everyone with a twist of an ending.
Under director Sam Newfield, producer A.W. Hackel, original story by Richard Martinsen, adaptation by Earl Snell...the cast include a very young Johnny Mack Brown (Johnny Hume/Billy Hume), Billie Seward (Ethel Carson), Syd Saylor (Oscar), Lloyd Ingraham (Joe Carson), Lee Shumway (Mr. Hume), Roger Williams (Tex), Frank McCarroll (Dick/a robber), Yakima Canutt ('The Cat'/original), Mickey Rentschler (Young Johnny), Rex Downing (Young Billy), Jack Cheatham (Bartender), Charles K. French (Mayor), Artie Ortego (Saloon robber), Arthur Thalasso (Calls Johnny a coward), Wally West (Barfly)........special footnote actor Johnny Mack Brown had a long film association with producer A.W. Hackel in a series of sixteen B-Westerns for the independent Poverty Row's Supreme Pictures, many directed by Sam Newfield...A. William Hackel also produced a series of Bob Steele B-Westerns........meanwhile back to another great Johnny Mack B-Western provided by Supreme Pictures during their heyday of the early '30s.
