The Cisco Kid is a 1931 American pre-Code Western film directed by Irving Cummings and starring Warner Baxter. It was produced and distributed by Fox Film Corporation and is a follow-up to Fox's hugely successful 1928 In Old Arizona and 1930's The Arizona Kid, both of which had starred Baxter as the same character The Cisco Kid.[1] A copy is preserved at the Library of Congress.[2]

Plot

The Cisco Kid saves a widow's ranch by robbing a bank. He risks being captured when he erroneously thinks that one of her children has been injured. The local sergeant is so impressed by that concern that he "accidentally" lets Cisco escape.[3]
