Auction History Result 3z0623 CAPTAIN THUNDER LC 1930 Cisco Kid rip-off Victor Varconi with gun drawn by couple, very rare! Date Sold 4/2/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Captain Thunder, the 1930 Alan Crosland south-of-the-border Mexico romantic costumed hero adventure melodrama starring Fay Wray, Victor Varconi (in the title role as El Capitan Thunder), Charles Judels, Robert Elliott, and Bert Roach. Note that this movie was made right after "In Old Arizona" won a Best Actor Academy Award for Warner Baxter, and this apparently was an attempt to cash in on that success, with a very similar plot, and the lead character even wears a costume just like The Cisco Kid! But Victor Varconi was a Hungarian actor portraying a Mexican cowboy, and he sounded more like Bela Lugosi, and the movie was very forgettable (and has been totally forgotten)!
