Beasley, who is after Gayner's land, plans to kidnap his daughter. But Dale overhears their plan and kidnaps her himself. When Gayner arrives to retrieve his daughter, Beasley kills him and makes the Sheriff arrest Dale for the murder.
The cast for this film is pretty good--with Randolph Scott, Harry Carey, Noah Beery, Barton MacLane, Buster Crabbe, Guinn Williams and many other familiar old faces. Unfortunately, the DVD copy is really bad--very choppy, overly dark and in need of restoration.
This is an early Randolph Scott western--you can tell because Scott was sporting a mustache similar to the one worn by Errol Flynn. This is a bit hard to imagine but what is MUCH more difficult is seeing him playing with his pet lion--yes, lion! While very few would notice, the lion DID change sex in the opening scene--with shots of an adolescent male and female switching repeatedly. Later, you learn that Scott owns several lions as pets...in the American West! It got even weirder in a scene soon after where Guinn Williams is seen wrestling a young mule--literally wrestling! What a bizarre movie! Scott learns that an evil boss-man (Beery) is planning on kidnapping a young lady. So, to thwart his wicked plan, he kidnaps the petulant young woman himself. But in the meantime, the girl's father is killed and Beery frames poor Scott for this. Can the ever-heroic Scott manage to avoid a hanging AND bring justice to the frontier? See this for yourself if you want to know how all this ends.
Overall, this is an enjoyable film despite its eccentricities--or perhaps because of them. The comic relief was actually pretty good, the acting decent (though Scott was a bit wooden--probably since it was one of his earliest starring roles) and the story engaging. Not great but quite enjoyable for a cheap B-movie.
After watching and reviewing nearly three hundred Westerns on this forum, it's always a neat surprise to find one with an element or two that I haven't seen before. Not that "Man of the Forest" doesn't have one of the typically standard plots for a 'B' oater, because it does. This is one of those flicks where the evil town boss (Noah Beery Sr.) attempts to steal a rival's ranch out from under his niece who's arriving from back East to help out her uncle. Isn't it interesting that most of the time it's a returning niece or nephew instead of a son or daughter - I wonder why that is? Unless you've seen a bunch of these Thirties and Forties Westerns you might not give it a second thought, but it struck me enough today to comment on it, and believe me, I've seen a few hundred of these.
As for something 'new', the picture catches your interest in the opening scene when it looks like a mountain lion is stalking our hero Brett Dale (Randolph Scott), and attacks him from a rocky ledge. Surprise number one is that after wrestling the animal to a standoff, we find out that it's one of his pet lions. Surprise number two is that the mountain lion from the earlier stock footage is replaced by an African lioness! Not only that, but another lioness portrays the male counterpart! I was looking for a way to pluralize lioness (lionesses, lionii), but I came up empty - neither one sounds like it makes any sense. 'Mike' and 'Bessie' had a trio of cubs that looked as cute as all get out, and I think they helped in some small degree to win pretty Alice Gaynor (Verna Hillie) over to Brett Dale's side.
Before that happened though, Scott's character had to rescue Miss Alice from an attempted kidnapping by Clint Beasley's (Beery) henchmen. This is the second time now that I've seen a Western hero spank an uncooperative female in what many would consider to be a politically incorrect scenario (the other was Gene Autry putting Barbara Pepper over his knee in 1935's "Sagebrush Troubadour").
For Western fans, this one is a veritable treasure trove of familiar character actors of the era. Besides Beery, you have appearances by Harry Carey Sr., Barton MacLane, Buster Crabbe, and a slap dash comedy duo consisting of Guinn 'Big Boy' Williams and Vince Barnett. The pair get some mileage out of an ornery mule, and have a stake in making the save for Brett Dale in the finale.
Even though the picture is fairly run of the mill story-wise, I'd recommend it for a chance to see Randolph Scott in an early starring role. Interestingly, both Scott and director Henry Hathaway worked together on another Zane Grey based vehicle, "Heritage of the Desert" in 1932. It was Scott's first lead role and Hathaway's first directorial effort. It also had Big Boy Williams in the cast!
