In this Roy Rogers entry, featuring a song written by Oklahoma Governor Roy J. Turner (making him and Louisiana's Jimmie Davis and Texas' W.E. "Pappy" O'Daniel possibly the only state governors to write songs used in a western), Flying T ranch owner Sam Talbot is killed by a fall from a horse. St. Louis reporter Connie Edwards comes to check a rumor that he might have been murdered. She goes to Roy Rogers, editor of the local newspaper, and he takes her to the reading of Talbot's will. The ranch is left to Talbot's 12-year-old ward, Duke Lowery, much to the dismay of Talbot's niece, Jan Holloway. After some attempts on Duke's life, Roy finally proves that Jan, Steve McClory and coroner Jim Judnick had Talbot killed and are conspiring to do the same for Duke, making Jan the last heir.

| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzOne of the better singing cowboy Roy Rogers films. |
| User ReviewGreg Wgood singing cowboy western rogers/evans vehicle |
| User ReviewJames H64/100. Roy Rogers has always been a notch above Gene Autry, although they are both excellent. Roy sings better, is a more professional actor but their movie quality is about the same. Home in Oklahoma is quite good, fine story and Dale Evans adds a lot of spunk to the film, George "Gabby" Hayes provides fun support. It is a good mix of music, action, drama and comedy. |
