The Rough, Tough West is a 1952 American Western film directed by Ray Nazarro and starring Charles Starrett, Jock Mahoney and Carolina Cotton. This was the sixty-third of 65 films in the Durango Kid series. [1] At this late date the series relied on cost-cutting measures to stay within a low budget, so this film contains footage from older Starrett westerns.

Plot

The Durango Kid arrives in a mining town in search of an old friend, only to find the man is now running the town and has become corrupt, which brings him to disguise himself as a masked stranger while exposing his old pal as the felon he is.

Partial cast

  • Charles Starrett as Steve Holden / The Durango Kid
  • Jock Mahoney as Big Jack Mahoney
  • Carolina Cotton as Carolina
  • Pee Wee King as Pee Wee - Golden West Cowboys Band Leader
  • Pee Wee King and His Band as Musicians
  • Raider as Durango's Horse
  • Bullet as Steve's Horse
  • Smiley Burnette as Fire Chief Smiley Burnette
