Le avventure di Cisko Kid

It's Warner Baxter's fifth turn as the Cisco Kid, and his last. In the subsequent six movies, Cesar Romero takes over as the famous bandit. In this one, Cesar plays one of Warner's sidekicks, alongside Chris-Pin Martin, who's played Gordito since 1931 - "I think." It's movies like these that made a lot of audience members think Cesar Romero actually had an accent; but then you see him in movies like Tall, Dark, and Handsome and realize it was completely put on!

As all the movies start, Warner is pleased to know the Cisco Kid is presumed dead. He's free to go about as he pleases without fear of arrest. He meets Henry Hull and his granddaughter Lynn Bari on a stagecoach and soon gets drawn in by their accidental problems. Henry is an alcoholic, with a penchant for check-bouncing and selling a non-existent gold mine, but he messes with the wrong fellow this time. Robert Barrat is a crooked sheriff, who wants revenge from Henry's swindling. It's Warner to the rescue, with Chris-Pin and Cesar in tow. You'll also see Ward Bond as a tough troublemaker. Both Robert and Ward can be found in the following installment, The Cisco Kid and the Lady, if you want to see them again.

In case you're worried about an unfortunate end to Warner Baxter as the actors transition, have no fear. This movie ends exactly like the others do. Cesar merely takes up where Warner left off next time.
