Back in the Saddle is a 1941 American Western film directed by Lew Landers and starring Gene Autry, Smiley Burnette, and Mary Lee. Written by Richard Murphy and Jesse Lasky Jr., the film is about a singing cowboy who attempts to bring peace between ranchers and the operator of a copper mine whose chemicals are poisoning the area's water supply. The film features several of Autry's hit songs, including "Back in the Saddle", "I'm An Old Cowhand", and "You Are My Sunshine".

Synopsis

Singing cowboy and ranch foreman Gene Autry (Gene Autry) and his sidekick Frog Millhouse (Smiley Burnette) are in New York City at a rodeo looking to "round up" their new ranch owner Tom Bennett (Edward Norris) and bring him back to Solitude, Arizona to run the Bar Cross ranch left to him by his late father. Tom, however, has no interest in leaving behind the excitement and glamour of the city for a boring life out West. Having promised Tom's father that he would take care of his son, Gene takes him to the train by force.
