Portraying " 'The Cisco Kid "In Old Arizona," won him his laurels. He began his professional stage career by accident when the male half of a vaudeville team fell ill. The lady in the case, in placing Warner Baxter opposite her behind the footlights, little realized she was starting him on his way to become the premiere performer of the screen. When the Arizona Kid rode away into the night - - we hoped he might someday come back again - - to live - - and fight - - and love a more worthy woman. What we wished has come true. Warner Baxter brings the lovable outlaw to life again in "The Arizona Kid." Mona Maris, playing opposite him, is here shown at the moment "The Arizona Kid" comes to realize that she truly loves him. — Thanks for the Title I have just read my first copy of Stone “Casting Day” “Screen Mirror,” and I think it is the best My daughter brought home one of printed movie magazine I your magazines from the theatre, and have ever seen—and that's plenty! carelessly left it lying in my study.
