Buck Jones and his horse, Silver, star in the 1932 Columbia picture, “One Man Law,” filmed on location on the Walker Ranch in Placerita Canyon. (The Paramount Ranch in Agoura served as the Western street.)

Written and directed by Lambert Hillyer (who also directed William S. Hart on several occasions), “One Man Law” was initially released Jan. 11, 1932, and E.J. and Bill are screening it here on SCV In The Movies.

ABOUT E.J. STEPHENS

E.J. Stephens spends his days as an archivist/historian for a movie studio and his nights as a caped vigilante.

When not fighting evil-doers with derring-do and aplomb, E.J. writes Hollywood history books (which nobody reads), leads tours (which nobody goes on), and co-hosts “SCV in the Movies,” (which nobody watches). E.J. is also on the board of directors of the Friends of Hart Park (but he never attends the meetings).

He and Kimi, his wife, best friend and co-conspirator, live in Newhall.

ABOUT BILL WEST

Bill West is a movie nut who serves on the board of Friends of Hart Park, gives tours of the Hart Mansion and maintains the Friends’ website and newsletter.

In his “spare time,” Bill writes software for Walt Disney Imagineering, where he has contributed to Star Tours, Toy Story Midway Mania, the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage and other Disney attractions worldwide. Previously, he wrote software at Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where he met his wife, realtor and model Liliana West.

Bill lives in Santa Clarita with Liliana, their son Josh, and their pets which include Hannah the Dog, Luigi the Canary, Butterscotch the Guinea Pig, and a cat whose name he can’t pronounce but is Polish for “Kitty.”
