Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains some spoilers for this film!
Synopsis: To further his acquisitive ambitions, the wily and dashing outlaw known as The Cisco Kid (Cesar Romero) impersonates the grandson of wealthy and honorable ranch owner Don Fernando de Vega (Pedro de Cordoba), and mixes business with pleasure to dally with pretty warbling songbird Maria Cordova (Lynne Roberts) and the more experienced and seductive Rosita (Patricia Morison), who conspires with the devious and repellent Ricardo de Vega (Roberto Cortez) to further an underhanded plot of her own.
Kitty Cameo: Just prior to eavesdropping on the last conversation between Cisco and his look-alike Carlos Hernandez (Cesar Romero), Maria greets Pancho the tabby cat with a perky good morning.
She holds him to her chest while she listens in on the conversation, then sets him down near the end of the men’s talk.
Final Mewsings: Cats are equipped to be most excellent eavesdroppers.
