Nothing Too Good For A Cowboy casts Chad Willet as a former New York stockbroker turned cowboy and now trying to run a ranch with the good help of good old boy Ted Atherton as a cowboy mentor. The time is 1939 with Canada about to go to war to help the mother country.
When war comes Willet is told that raising beef cattle is an essential occupation and he's exempt. His patriotic hands with a little encouragement from banker Dan McDonald enlist. McDonald does a real good job of being a real snake in the grass who even in time of war is looking to pick up some good bargains in foreclosure.
But Willet gets the best bargain of all in Sarah Chalke when they meet in Vancouver. She's a débutante and seeing him on that horse was enough for her. After a fashion she takes to ranch life even winning over Atherton as well.
Before hitting the big time with an Oscar nomination, Ryan Gosling plays a supporting role as one of a pair of itinerant youths that Willet hires to replace his cowhands. Both Willet and Gosling did not play in the short-lived television series made from this film.
Nothing Too Good For A Cowboy is an easy to take film with a pair of attractive leads in Willet and Chalke.
