From the late 1930s to the early 1950s, Helldorado provided the background for three theatrical films. The Hollywood highlight is the 1946 movie "Helldorado." Roy Rogers returned, this time bringing Dale Evans, 'Gabby' Hayes, and Trigger the Wonder Horse. Since there was already a 1934 Hollywood movie titled "Helldorado," according to movie rules, the Rogers-Evan version had to drop one of the "L's" in the film title.
