DVD Review: "VCI presents three adventures of The Cisco Kid & Pancho"
Summary: 5 Stars
VCI Entertainment presents "The Cisco Kid Double Feature" (Dolby digitally remastered)...here's adventure, here's romance, here's O'Henry's famous Robin Hood of the Old West...the Cisco Kid featuring Duncan Renaldo as Cisco and Leo Carrillo as his comical sidekick Pancho, in the first film Martin Garralaga plays Pancho...relive those thrilling days from the early '40s and '50s when romance and drama took us down the dusty trails and the plains to exciting adventures.
First up of this double feature from Monogram Pictures is "South of the Rio Grande" (1945)...Under director Lambert Hillyer, producer Philip N. Krasne with screenplay by Ralph Gilbert Bettison, Victor Hammond and Johnston McCulley...the cast include a very young Duncan Renaldo (The Cisco Kid), Martin Garralaga (Pancho), Armida (Pepita), George J. Lewis (Miguel Sanchez), Lillian Molieri (Dolores Gonzalez), Francis Macdonald (Torres - chief henchman), Charles Stevens (Sebastian), Pedro Regas (Luis), Soledad Jimenez (Mama Maria), Tito Renaldo (Manuel Gonzalez) and some fine musicians The Guadalajara Trio...an early outing for Duncan Renaldo as Cisco with musical numbers taking front row at the beginning of our story...even Duncan Renaldo sings and romances just to get in thick with the thieves...will adventure take the form of undercover work for our hero and find out whose been rustling the cattle...can the evidence that Cisco discovers put an end to all murdering and trouble for the local people...this film is shot for the most part on a soundstage...another great film performed by many veteran actors during their heyday of the mid '40.

INTERVIEW with DUNCAN RENALDO
1. Very informative and enlightening interview tracing Duncan Renaldo's career of how he came to play "The Cisco Kid" plus behind the scenes with Leo Carrillo and various trailers.
2. In 1980, Renaldo received a Special Lifetime Achievement Award from Nosotros, which honored him for "providing a postive Hispanic role model for Americans"...and what's more states "The Cisco Kid" a perennial television favorite.
3. This DVD is dedicated in Loving Memory of Duncan Renaldo 1904-1980
Renaldo was in his '60s and Carillo in his '70s when they appeared at the "Firemen's Rodeo" in St. Louis during the '50s ~ my Grandmother and Great Aunt took me to see them, and I believe both of them had a crush on the two actors (Renaldo and Carrillo) came galloping out into the center of the arena, every kid in attendance was in awe, as I was and when the show was over, I rode my imaginary horse home.
Own them now on DVD....if you crave action, drama and plenty of adventure then this is the place for all of the above...if you enjoyed this serial check out another VCI Entertainment release the first big screen full length in color "Lone Ranger" (1956) (digitally remastered in Dolby), long running Lone Ranger series on radio and then turned out in the early '40s in the movies...it's all new and in Warnercolor the west's greatest hero...the story line is excellent with outstanding action scenes and production with over hours worth of entertainment
Great job by VCI Entertainment for releasing the digital transfere with a clean, clear and crisp print...looking forward to more of the same from the '40s vintage...order your copy now from Amazon or VCI Entertainment, stay tuned once again with a top notch serial from VCI...so saddle up and get ready for some hard riding and adventure that only The Cisco Kid and Pancho can deliver...just the way we like 'em!
Total Time: 145 mins on DVD ~ VCI Entertainment 8331 ~ (6/25/2002)
