The Bandit Buster Synopsis
Sylvia Morton is the daughter of wealthy banker Henry Morton. She's worried that her father is working too hand. One day she meets Buddy Miller and his friend Romeo, and together they come up with a scheme to take her father to a mountain resort for some rest--whether he wants to or not. Unbeknownst to the group, Henry is in the middle of an important stock transaction involving his holdings in a steel company. When a clerk at the resort finds out who Morton is and about the stock deal, he arranges for Morton to be kidnapped and held for a large ransom. Complications ensue.
The Jackeroo of Coolabong Synopsis
Brian O'Farrell (Snowy Baker), is an English 'new chum' who takes a job at an Australian cattle station. He is teased by station hands because of his appearance (including spats and a monocle) but he soon impresses them with his skills at riding and boxing. The station manager, John MacDonald (Wilfred Lucas), takes O'Farrell to Sydney to meet his daughter Edith (Kathleen Key) who is working in the slums. Edith is kidnapped by criminals after witnessing a crime but O'Farrell rescues her. It is later revealed he is the owner of the station.
"The Bandit Buster" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Jackeroo of Coolabong" offers its own unique cult appeal.
