Gene Reynolds is sent from happy, carefree California to Spain to grow up to be a Spanish gentleman. When he returns as Ricardo Cortez, he finds California changed, his father almost broke, because the Yankees are in charge, making up false taxes and seizing the ranchos. So he joins the bandits under George Regas, and takes over on a paying basis.
This cheap movie directed by Gus Meins looks like it's going to be Zorro, but turns into something far more standard and uninvolving. There's the typical bad guy and it all depends on getting the the incriminating documents to the honest deputatio from San Francisco. Despite a cast which includes Nigel de Brulier, Marjorie Weaver, Katherine De Mille, and Pierre Watkins, and which was distributed by 20th Century-Fox, this Sol Lesser production is strictly Poverty Row in scripting and execution.
