Ella and the boys
26 February 2014
While the focus is supposed to be on Abbott and Costello in Ride 'Em Cowboy, the main attraction is Ella Fitzgerald. Do not miss her singing the classic tune 'A Tisket, a Tasket.' There are other musical acts featured in this production, and they are just as worthy of viewers' attention.

As expected, the motion picture contains inspired comic performances by the main duo and by some of the costars. For the most part, the gags are more than vaudeville-type bits, and they do contribute to the overall storyline-- even if the duo is shifted to the background during the musical scenes and while the romantic leads are falling in love.
