Comment
The Cisco Kid (Warner Baxter) is a charming, womanising bandit who has a girl friend (Dorothy Burgess) who agrees to set him up so that a soldier (Edmund Lowe) she has met can capture him. Today this is notable for being the first full sound western film and haviing outdoor scenes with sound. The original audiences were surprised by the sound of ham and eggs being cooked.
