Buster Crabbe's sudden change of heart in Drift Fence rather weakens what otherwise is a straightforward Western of the old school, directed with zest and verve by former editor Otto Lovering. Paramount always had a soft spot for Zane Grey's old-fashioned style of Western fiction, and had produced several fine screen versions in the silent era. Drift Fence, however, operated on a modest budget, the company obviously saving a buck or two for its upcoming Cecil B. DeMille epic The Plainsman (1936), which was in production at the same time.
