Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Justice of the West consists of rhree episodes of the TV series The Lone Ranger, cobbled together into an ersatz feature. Clayton Moore plays the Masked Rider of the Plains, while Jay Silverheels is his faithful Indian companion Tonto. In the first episode, our heroes find a cache stolen gold. In the second, they save Indian school from bigots. In the third, they "show the way" for an embittered blind man. All three episodes are in color, and all are lifted from The Lone Ranger's final (1955-56) season. Incidentally, director Oscar Rudolph was the father of Robert Altman associate Alan Rudolph.
