Bells of San Fernando was advertised as a romantic adventure, but it plays more like a Western. Donald Woods plays an Irish immigrant who teams with Mexican gal Gloria Warren to combat land baron Anthony Warde. Whenever the plot lags, Warren sings. Catch the name of “Renault Duncan” in the screenplay credits of Bells of San Fernando. It’s really actor Duncan Renaldo, aka “The Cisco Kid” — which may explain why the film looks like a thinly disguised “Cisco” episode.
