Robert Mitchum stars in Zane Grey’s WEST OF THE PECOS (1945) a wonderful B western. After several years of working his way up from gang member to good guy in the Hopalong Cassidy films, Mitchum was finally cast as the new B western hero. This is the second of his two starring B westerns at RKO. The first was NEVADA (1944), which is available right here on our AWOW channel. https://youtu.be/-2R99POOF8k?si=ed8ZmgSUfVf2Tq98

Young Mitchum gets solid support in WEST OF THE PECOS from Barbara Hale as a cross-dressing Eastern lass who is very funny and practically steals the film years before she became known worldwide as "Della Street" on TV's PERRY MASON. In fact, some say she did steal the film!

Tim Holt’s sidekick, Richard Martin, becomes Mitchum's saddle pal for the second time and reprises his role as “Chito Rafferty.” Veteran Harry Woods leads the gang of outlaws, one of which, stuntman Henry Wills, can be spotted in the group. The supporting cast also includes Thurston Hall as Hale’s father and Bill Williams, who gets shot early on, was Hale’s future husband! His last name was Katt and the two had a son...actor William Katt "The World's Greatest Hero." Bill starred in the popular syndicated western series "The Adventures of Kit Carson."

As you’ll see, Mitchum already displayed traits that helped solidify his growing legion of fans. Lots of action and comedy make this a very entertaining film and the Lone Pine locations make it a superior looking B western. Mount Witney is in the background during a terrific tracking sequence shot on famed Movie Road.
