Yikes, this is a mess. We start with "Campo" (Warner Baxter) in a small town with his friends, flirting outrageously, before they all head off into the countryside en route to Buenos Aires where he is racing his horse. Not long into their trip they encounter an aircraft that's broken down and onboard is acclaimed Parisian chanteuse "Yvonne" (Ketti Gallian). Stopping off briefly in an hotel, she races ahead for a performance and he follows on for his race - only to discover that his horse has been pinched and is now racing under the colours of "Tito" (J. Carrol Naish). Of course, "Campo" can't prove anything and after a court tells him to get lost he alights on his own solution. Like her plane, this just doesn't fly. For the most part it seems to be an excuse to showcase some Gaucho singing, dancing and boozing whilst Baxter's accent gets thicker and the photography looks more like a series of outtakes from a "Zorro" serial. Will he get his gal and the horse? Well maybe she can sing while he eats the horse? Anyway - the dialogue is shocking and I'd just avoid, sorry.
