Round-Up Time in Texas

In the rolling grasslands of Texas, Gene Autry commands a sprawling herd of horses with the effortless confidence of a seasoned wrangler. His world is a blend of open‑range freedom and the steady rhythm of sunrise‑to‑sunset drives, a place where the whistle of a wind‑blown prairie and the clop of hooves set the tempo of daily life. By his side is his quick‑witted companion Frog Millhouse, a loyal sidekick whose humor and resourcefulness turn every routine task into a small adventure, cementing a partnership that feels as natural as the land itself.

A unexpected telegram arrives from Gene’s brother, Ken Cooper, who has struck what he believes to be a fortune deep in the diamond fields of South Africa. The message carries a plea for a massive supply of horses to support a fledgling mining venture far across the ocean. What begins as a simple logistical mission quickly swells into an audacious cross‑continental undertaking, promising the kind of high‑stakes trek that has long been the stuff of frontier legend. The prospect of loading the herd onto a vessel and sailing toward an exotic new frontier adds a dash of daring to the familiar Texas routine.

Shadowed by the whispered rumors of a gang of outlaws keen on the riches rumored to be hidden in the mine, the journey acquires a subtle edge of tension. Gene’s earnest determination to help his brother is matched by Frog’s light‑hearted scheming, creating a dynamic where steadfast resolve meets mischievous charm. Their camaraderie, set against sweeping deserts, bustling ports, and the ever‑present horizon, suggests an adventure that is as much about personal loyalty as it is about the wild, untamed world they navigate.

As the herd is readied for departure, the wind carries hints of impending chase and unexpected encounters, promising a fast‑paced, action‑filled ride across the Texas frontier and beyond. The stage is set for a tale where bold hearts, trusty steeds, and the promise of distant horizons converge, leaving the audience eager to see how the open road reshapes their destinies.
