Bounty Hunter Bud ‘Charity’Jenkins is hired by the Government to protect a shipment of one million dollars meant for railroad construction. But town boss/bank owner Mr. Costello has a scheme to pocket the money for himself. Meanwhile, a wanted man posing as a Reverend (with a talking parrot named George Washington!) shows up in town, as does Mr. Costello's prim and proper sister Maria (Rosalba Neri). Needless to say, this complicates everyone's plans a little more. Another comedy western with a talking parrot, need I say more?

ReplyDeleteAs a rule of thumb the longer the title the later it appeared in the genre.
