★★★ · Roy Rogers in "Jesse James at Bay" · porterville · 2011-05-27

Roy Rogers in a dual role: one as the outlaw Jesse James (who happens to be the good individual in this movie), and a Jesse James look alike who happens to be the bad individual. George "Gabby" Hayes does well in his role as the sheriff. Gale Storm plays one of two ladies from the newspaper. It would have been a better western if Sally Payne and Gale Storm had not been in it. Trigger, the horse, was not in this movie. Overall, Roy Rogers did well in a dual role.
