Cut Film · 40sShortysGirl · 2012-05-04

Unfortunately this is the cut version of the film. This usually makes the plot harder to follow (some films worse than others). One of the scenes that was cut out from this film was "Biscuit Blues" sung by Pat Brady and the Sons of the Pioneers. Really fun number.
