Trivia
This is one of 54 Hopalong Cassidy features produced by Harry Sherman, initially distributed by Paramount Pictures from 1935-1941, and then by United Artists 1942-1944, which were purchased by their star William Boyd for nationally syndicated television presentation beginning in 1948 and continuing thereafter for many years, as a result of their phenomenal success. Each feature was re-edited to 54 minutes so as to comfortably fit into a 60 minute time slot, with six minutes for commercials. It was not until 50 years later that, with the cooperation of Mrs. Boyd. i.e. Grace Bradley, that they were finally restored to their original length with their original opening and closing credits intact.

Quotes

Windy makes this one very funny.

A mine owner is having horrible luck...or so it seems. There have been several deaths in the mine in one week alone. Later, you know it's no accident when the owner himself is viciously killed by a gang of baddies. Now that Ann is running the mine, Hoppy and his pals volunteer to help her and figure out what's REALLY happening.

The best part of this film is, by far, watching Windy as the mine's guard. Hopalong knows that his foreman is actually in league with the baddies...and he sends him a man who seems like the absolutely WORST watchman in history. Why? Because Windy pretends to be profoundly deaf in order to convince the foreman that his henchmen can work at night without discovery. Now I have a deaf daughter and I am hard of hearing myself...but I didn't find this tacky or politically incorrect. It was very funny the way he played it up...and he was just wonderful.

Overall, a very good AND funny installment of the Hopalong Cassidy franchise. Well worth your time. And, if you want to see it, YouTube has tons of these films...all fully restored and in pristine condition.
