The titles aren't always readily available in my memory as they start to run together. I still get a cozy, nice feeling watching Roy, Dale and the gang riding, singing and putting those bad guys in their place.Caftan Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936895555808823221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-4209605736304641362014-10-15T11:02:43.452-07:002014-10-15T11:02:43.452-07:00A wonderful tribute, C.W.

I just get a nice feeling when I see Roy and Dale and Trigger. But I do remember that Roy was the best horse back rider I think I've ever seen. I think his films may have made me a life long horse enthusiast even if I did live on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. :) I don't remember Tito but I must have seen him. I'm going to check youtube. I like the idea of this blogathon, and what with me being a old Latina, I should have joined in. But truth to tell, I didn't hear of it until I saw your post.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-11922786521988195882014-10-13T09:21:46.734-07:002014-10-13T09:21:46.734-07:00Thanks, Rick.

And Tito Guizar had an amazing voice—even as a kid I was impressed by his "Granada."<br /><br />I agree with you about <i>The Gay Ranchero</i> being the better film—<i>On the Old Spanish Trail</i> has a bit of a muddled plot, which I thought lost steam a little in the second half, but there's lots of individual fun moments. I always got a kick out of the bit at the end where McGraw finally loses patience with Graham's antics and hauls off and socks him. It's always amusing when the villains get to quarreling among themselves. :)Elisabeth Grace Foleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073159989691222645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-76803549718151998192014-10-11T13:28:29.783-07:002014-10-11T13:28:29.783-07:00What a lovely post.

I've seen Tito in several of his Spanish-speaking films, more so than Hollywood productions, but have never seen Alla en el Rancho Grande, which was such a landmark movie for the Mexican film industry. Must see it! NOR did I know Tito's career was that long. I have seen On the Old Spanish Trail and The Gay Ranchero, however, and love how you describe them. Such a fun group of characters and both movies offer a great time. Also love your shout-out to Estelita. :) <br /><br />Terrific!!
