- John Wayne, Ray “Crash” Corrigan and Max Terhune are the 3 Mesquiteers in SANTA FE STAMPEDE. It’s a solid, action filled saga directed by George Sherman, who worked with Duke decades later as the producer of THE COMANCHEROS (1961) and directed him again in one of his best later westerns, BIG JAKE in 1971.
SANTA FE STAMPEDE from 1938 was one of Duke’s last B westerns and it’s a good one. It was made just one year before Wayne was to star in John Ford’s influential A-western, STAGECOACH (1939), which took him out of the B movie category he’d been working since the disaster of THE BIG TRAIL (1930). But, even after the release and success of STAGECOACH, Duke honored his contract with Republic Pictures and returned to star in several more 3 Mesquiteers movies, for a total of eight in the series.
In SANTA FE STAMPEDE Duke is falsely arrested for murder and his two sidekicks, Corrigan and Terhune, are trying to solve the case before their pal is lynched. Terhune was one of the most unusual sidekicks because he was a ventriloquist and carried around his “dummy,” Elmer, for generally funny bits.
Republic westerns were always filled with well-staged action. This film is no exception. Once again, the legendary Yakima Canutt is working both in front of and behind the camera staging the fast riding, the shootouts and even a brawl in the courtroom. An uncredited newcomer, George Montgomery, doubles Duke in several sequences. As usual, there are plenty of veteran actors making appearances and SANTA FE STAMPEDE is a veritable showcase for them. You’ll spot LeRoy Mason, William Farnum, Tom London, and Richard Alexander, with Charles King and Bud Osbourne as, what else, bad guys!
This movie is lots of fun and you’ll be able to see how far Duke progressed as an actor from the earlier serials and co-starring roles that we’ve featured here on our annual John Wayne Tribute, A WORD ON WAYNE on our weekly movie showcase WORD’S WAYBACK.

I like these early John Wayne westerns especially the Three Mesquiteers
i used to watch them every weekend Thank You Rob.🇺🇲🤠🐴🇺🇲
Thanks, roger. These were very well done and it's great to see young Duke maturing from the early Lone Star westerns.
Avalon ..good idea. Hope u can get him. Also, are u still working on getting Audie Murphy's sons?
Holy smokes!
First 15 minutes in and I'm reminded once again that however the stuntmen and animals were compensated, it was NOT Enough.
That dumping of the horse and rider during the 1st chase sequence was unbelievable.
Know these are B westerns but I enjoyed and appreciated them for what they were - a not too serious film that can be enjoyed by the whole family.
Thanks Rob and the rest of the AWOW team for the upload.
Rob & RJ Word are the Best of the Classic West! 👍👍 10 Hat tips 🤠
48:30 That kid rides like I did at that age. 🤠👑
First time we’ve seen one of these Mesquiteers movies in such great quality!! Thanks, Rob! Your fans in PA 🐴🐴
Thanks. We try harder.
Watched Tales of Wells Fargo today featuring Darryl Hickman. He passed today at 92. Dobbie Gillis' older brother. R.I.P. Darryl. Always a good guy right to the end.
Sad, Buddy. He also did a Lone Ranger episode with his brother, plus Rawhide, Sheriff of Cochise, Sky King, Range Rider. I tried to convince him to do an interview about 6 years ago, even driving up to Montecito with a small crew, and he just wasn't interested. I'm sure we would have had a terrific conversation.
Good Friday evening to all and thanks for this young Duke classic Rob. His steadfast gaze set the stage on tonight's Santa Fe Stampede. Really enjoying it AWOW team!!
Happy Trails🎉
Great Watch. The film was darker in tone than I expected.
Watching these films Live on Fridays is a highlight of my week.
Thanks Team WoW!
Glad you enjoyed it, Ace. Thanks. "See" you again Friday!
John Wayne movies looks really Good in 4K
Always enjoy the Duke, thanks for posting! : )
You bet!
Ray Corrigan and His "CORRIGAN RANCH" always fascinated me. I loved the "3 MESQUITEERS" even with all of their subsequent personnel changes. I always felt that Corrigan never got his "due" as a cowboy and often wondered because he put on the Gorilla suit in all those other movies. Thanks for showing this picture, Rob.
I used to ride on the Corriganville property with Ray's son, Tom, back in the 80s, so it's always fun to see his property used in films. Great memories.
@@AWordonWesterns I always read the credits. It had to be a magical place for a kid to see.
Hi, Friends, and many thanks to Team AWOW. Giddyap! 🐴🐴🐴🐴
Off topic, suggestion..can you get Frankie Avalon for an interview, please before he as well could be gone ..he was on the full shoot of Duke's "Alamo", and,as i told you earlier, it's how he met Michael Wayne,became lifelong friends, and met Michael 's sister in law,who is still to this day Mrs.Avalon..he has a wealth of stories, a great source that you might not think of at first, but his experiences in show biz, and the way he tells them,are terrific..a dark horse, i would say.
Yep. I really need to get his info and contact him. THANKS Michael.
@@AWordonWesterns Frankie is an uncommonly gracious fellow, so solicitous to fans..he can tell you Buster Keaton stories,Jackie Gleason,Otto Preminger,it goes on and on,like I say, a dark 🐴
That’s a great idea to have Frankie Avalon on
Love the scenery . . . Santa Clarita, Iverson Ranch, Porter Ranch and Corriganville. All gone now . . . nothing but homes and office bldgs. now !! Shame they couldn't have kept some of that area where hundreds (maybe thousands) of great movies and TV shows were filmed from the 20's, through the 90's. A lot of these so called "B" movies are better than the Hollywood "A" movies they made.
All good!
Thanks, Scot
Yes❤
I really enjoy you putting on these 30's BW movies .
Me, too!
This. Is. A. Top. Classic. Howdy. Movie. Whit. A. Very. Good. Story. I. Love. These. Westerns. Just. Perfect. 🎉🎉🎉🎉💯💢💥💫💣🗯💣🗯💣 meny. Thanks. Rob. 👋🤠👌👍 ps.....john. wayne. Rules. 🤠😆👋👍
Thanks. A. Gen. Rob. Keep. On. Raiding. 👋🤠👌
Thought I’d seen all the old pictures
👏👏👏👏
The latest mesquiteer movies don’t seem to be available for viewing. I’m trying to see all from 1st to last.
Good
Thanks
Rob, you're mispronouncing Mesquiteers. The young boy in the opening says it correctly . Similar to musketeers.
Thanks, laurence. I've heard it multiple ways. I've used both pronunciations but the one for this intro was the way Yakima said it to me.
Wonder how many movies Charlie King had roles in ?
Over 400 films .
Countless. I have wondered why he was never "promoted " to bigger roles like Roy Barcroft. Same could be said of Tom London,
00:07:50
In them days they had to act now it’s all computerised
Not very safe handling of firearms by the kids. This looks like what we are seeing in our country right now.
The biggest movie star ever? 😮😅 He could only personage himself... I could easily recall at least one 100 better actors by name!
Better actors? Sure. But never a bigger movie star.
