In one of the most-used plots of the B-western genre, sometimes officially and sometimes just "borrowed" (see Movie Connections), Sunset Carson is a member of an outlaw gang led by Gil Santos, who have been holding up gold shipments dispatched from Laramie City. Sunset rebels when the gang leaves old Jeff Winters to die alone after he has been wounded in a hold-up gun fight. Sunset and Jeff break with the gang and begin operating on their own, or plan to.

PUNQ

Rated 29 May 2020

Republic Pictures pushed hard to make Sunset Carson a star, putting him in a bunch of films in a short time-span. He briefly gained some fame, but it was over as soon as it started thanks to showing up drunk with a underage girl at a studio party. He wasn't exactly turning up a great performance here either. That's the main problem with The El Paso Kid (1946), along with little rattling beyond the usual formula. Does have Marie Harmon as a leading lady. She didn't get many of those.
