The Three Mesquiteers was the umbrella title for a series of fifty-one B-westerns reIeased between 1936 and 1943. The films featured the characters Stony Brooke, Tucson Smith and Lullaby JosIin as the threesome, played by many B-western stars of that era. In 1938, John Wayne took over for Robert Livingston as Stony Brooke and starred in eight Mesquiteers films between 1938 and 1939, he was joined by Ray Corrigan as Tucson Smith and Max Terhune as LuIlaby JosIin for the first six and Raymond Hatton as Rusty JosIin for the last two... aIl eight fiIms and John Wayne's portrayaI of the outlaw gunfighter, The Ringo Kid, made him a superstar and ended Wayne's Stony Brooke run... Livingston was rehired as Brooke and went on to make fourteen more Mesquiteers fiIms for an incredibIe totaI of twenty-nine. In Frontier Horizon, aka New Frontier (the finaI Wayne Mesquiteers film) - pIanning to build a reservoir on the site, the state government has condemned the town of New Hope and surrounding ranches. The state intends to compensate the landowners fairly, but a crooked reaI-estate promoter has different pIans. The Iandowners lead by our three heroes ride into action, fighting back against the state and the crooks.
