He was gruff around the edges and soft on the inside, blustery traits fans greatly enjoyed in The Champ, Treasure Island and other memorable Wallace Beery films. Wrap a holster around that persona and put a horse under it and you've got this Western twinbill starring the shambling star. As Pancho Lopez, the bandito gang leader in The Bad Man, he makes things right for a gutsy rancher (Ronald Reagan) who once saved his life and also squelches the attempt of a loan shark ("loan fish" Lopez says) eager to claim the ranch. And Beery is The Bad Man of Brimstone, a notorious robber who secretly helps a young lawman who doesn't know the outlaw is his father. Giddy up!
