Featured review
Susan Boll Weavil?
Boll Weavil is a traditional blues song about the beetle that feeds on cotton. Susan is similarly a parasitic creature in that she wants her aunt to do her bidding, and to take her to San Francisco and support her lifestyle.
Her aunt owns the stage coach station. Her aunt is the only one that does any work. Her aunt is the one with a bank account. Susan has manipulated her aunt into selling the station and taking her to the big city, and Susan thinks she has it made in the shade!
Then along comes Matt Dillon with an injured prisoner. Art Lund is big and cuddly and age-appropriate for aunt (Kathleen Nolan). She spends a few days taking care of the injured outlaw and they fall in love. Susan is freaking out now, because auntie is stalling on traveling to the big city. Auntie found someone warm and sweet in her guest bedroom! Big city life can't be better than big 'ole Art Lund!
Into the picture arrive a couple of thugs looking for money. George DiCenzo is one of them, and he would later appear several times on James Arness' How the West Was Won, and on McClain's Law. Susan approaches these guys in the woods (she has a lot of brass). She offers them a free horse, $30 for traveling money, and tells them that Art Lund has a $500 reward on him. It is all theirs if they take him away before Matt Dillon returns.
Before long all hell breaks loose, and Matt Dillon arrives in time to dispense Justice! Selfish Susan is left without a sugar-auntie, and no ticket to the big city. She finally turns to the station's handyman (James Gammon), who had always been smitten by Susan, as her last chance to get out of town. His response to the woman he once wanted to marry is beyond priceless!!
