“Under The Pampas Moon” Will Be Attraction Over the Week-end
Warner Baxter proves his versatility when he lays the role of Cesar, the gaucho in Fox Film’s “Under The Pampas Moon”, which was produced by B G. DeDylva, directed by James Tinling and comes tomorrow to the Paramount theatre.
Baxter sings, dances, plays the guitar, throws the bolas and rides a horse in addition to playing a number of romantic scenes.
The star could sing, play the guitar and ride a horse before he began making the picture, but he had to learn to throw the bolas and dance the tango before the picture could go into production.
The studio procured a bolas expert to teach Baxter the art of throwing the bolas, the South American form of reata, and Rita Cansino, expert in all styles of dancing, who is under contract to Fox, taught Baxter the tango.
As for making love, that’s another story. Few screen actors excel Baxter in this art – as he has proven in more than thirty pictures he has made for Fox Film, beginning with “In Old Arizona”, in which he skyrocketed to fame.
Ketti Gallian is co-starred with Warner Baxter in “Under The Pampas Moon”, and the supporting cast includes such well-known personalities as the internationally famous dance team of Veloz and Yolanda, John Miljan, J. Carrol Naish, Soledad Jiminez, Jack LaRue, George Irving, Blanca Vischer, Rita Cansino and Armida.
“Four Hours to Kill”, with Richard Barthelmess in the starring role, is the current presentation at the Paramount theatre. “Four Hours to Kill” shows how an escaped convict spends his precious moments of freedom to get the rat who squealed on him.
Joe Morrison, Helen Mac, Gertrude Michael, Dorothy Tree, Roscoe Karns and Ray Milland play leading supporting roles in this production.
