The real life Lone Ranger was an African-American man named Bass Reeves.. This film is a perfect example of white washing history and systemic racism against African Americans.
I've always enjoyed watching these old westerns, the Lone Ranger tv series actually used a real Indian, a rariety in television in those days. Jay Silverheels was a very smart man.
Michael K ...it was very rare to use an Indian in most lead roles for Indians...so insulting when Hollywood resorted to using white men to play Indians...i.e. Chuck Connors aka the Rifleman was used to play Geronimo in a movie once... couldn't even get a white man to at least resemble a native American...I hate using the term indian

"A fiery horse with the speed of light, the cloud of dust and a hearty Hi-Yo, Silver! The Lone Ranger...With his faithful Indian companion Tonto, the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains led a fight for law and order in the early Western United States! Nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice! Returning with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear! From out of the past comes the thundering hoofbeats of the great horse Silver! The Lone Ranger rides again!"

There are many times the Lone Ranger is not so clever, for instance, in this episode the outlaws find out that the ranger is working on the side of the law when he is discovered using silver bullets.
The music used in the Lone Ranger is from the William Tell overture by rossini . I used to embarrass my son by playing the end music as loud as possible in the car going down the street.
The fabulous "filler" music, which set the moods for various scenes, was the work of Alberto Colombo, Cy Feuer, Karl Hajos and William Lava, all geniuses, I believe, who made each episode come to life They added key moments that complemented all the classical selections used in addition to the Rossini. The composer who wrote the music for your scene (19:15 to 20:06) was Cy Feuer. the segment is called "Nightfall." You can purchase the cd with all the marvelous episode fillers on "The Music of the Lone Ranger" (cd) CINEDISC CDC 1019. For absolute delight, I applaud the efforts of Reginald M. Jones, Jr. for his superb book, The Mystery of the Masked Man's Music.
Why does the Lone Ranger has a belt around his waist like an old Man? Does he have lipstick on his lips? Why Tonto speak broken English? I thought he went to school with White kids. Me would like to know.
The series never says where or how Tonto learns English, or how to read and write. However, if he went to a mission school after his tribe was destroyed, it would explain why he put crosses on the graves of the dead Rangers in the first episode. This is, of course, pure speculation.
SugarTomAppleRoger Janice making fun towards ones ethnicity. If anyone makes fun of hers then they're prejudice. Janice needs to continue taking walks for tit cancer.
Me bet Kemosabe speak broken Indian, too! In fact, Kemosabe can't speak Indian at all! :) I don't believe it says Tonto went to school anywhere. Such a wonderful character--smart as a whip. Have no idea why on earth some folks think he's supposed to be "dumb." They sure did a bad job presenting it that way!
A Hero is always a Hero, even passed away..
Clayton Moore will always be the true lone ranger and Jay silverheel as Tonto . Super hero . And American hero
Amen !
I LOVE the Lone Ranger posing as a bad guy...he can show off and act cocky, which he's good at, but doesn't get to do normally! :D

A truly legitimate American hero.
BTW, your lead photo featured Clayton Moore and John Doucette, both gone but not forgotten.
Such good memories of our family having Saturday lunch while watching The Lone Ranger in the 50s. 🌝

Very. So lucky that he stayed with for the entire show. What would the Lone Ranger be without him?! Me LOVE Tonto, Kemosabe! :D
Michael K, that was part of the plan

At age 5. I looked forward to view The Lone Ranger silver six shooters and silver bullets.
Love the Lone Ranger

Varmints!
Michael K ...up to 16 miserable people now😂

They are probably people that pulled the mask off the old Lone Ranger... after they tugged on Superman's cape...

childhood memories
My child hood Hero I still love this show !!
we loved the old. lone ranger movies
one of my most favorite episodes.
The Long Ranger was the best why because he never killed nobody and he didn't take the reward money. He and Tonto would clean up the town
... And during his fights his hat never got knocked off.
I remember evey Saturday morning watching the Lone Ranger
One hell of a karate chop to the head to knock Tonto out...,🤣
Awesome +
A great american hero watch everyday on u tube

Redblade....that's how he wanted it!!
My 72 yr old grandmother watches this show
¡Gracias por compartir!

Poor Tonto!
if some one can tell me where to find the music from 19:15 to 20:06 I would be forever grateful
I have been trying to find this music for years! If you get a reply, please post on here as I would be forever grateful, too.

Colorado gold heist
John Doucette many times bandit!
in these early shows, even though they are in black and white, if you look closely, TLR's pants are a darker color than his shirt...just sayin'
They were both blue , maybe different shades though as you imply.

I don't know, Janice. Perhaps you should ask your husband. He understands how men dress. You obviously don't. Women!
