The Gene Autry western Rovin’ Tumbleweeds has much in common with the previous Roy Rogers vehicle Wall Street Cowboy. Both films concern an honest cowpoke who comes to the Big City and flummoxes the crooked slickers therein. In the Autry film, the hero arrives in Washington (a la “Mr. Smith”), hoping to secure government aid for his flood-plagued constituents. The villain of the piece is political boss Holloway (Douglass Dumbrille), who holds up a flood-control bill so that he can foreclose on the washed-out farmers and thus line his own pockets. Most of the requisite musical numbers are staged in a jerry-built rustic radio station, where Autry and announcer Mary Carlisle are the only staff members., Gene Autry gets elected to Congress and fights for flood control. Smiley Burnette, Mary Carlisle, Douglass Dumbrille, William Farnum. A novel attempt, but Washington slows up the action. George Sherman directed.
