In Caliente (Warner Bros.) (1935)

IN CALIENTE EXPLOITATION A New Idea In Radio Sketches If you’ve been broadeasting our regular 15 minute scene-reenactments week after week, you'll probably welcome this departure. Instead of presenting a few scenes from the picture as is usually done, we’ve written a little play around ‘an incident during production of the picture’ which works in the cast and songs and locale within the same time limit. Read it and see how! (“Caliente” score as sung by en semble in chorus, introductory music) ANNOUNCER: Ladies and Gentlemen, we take great pleasure in presenting a novel radio feature, the dramatization of an interesting adventure which befell the famous Hollywood stars, Dolores Del Rio, Pat O’Brien and Leo Carrillo, who are appearing together in the new Warner Bros. picture, “In Caliente.” It oeeurred during the filming of the picture in Mexico when the three had taken time off to visit Miss Del Rio’s girlhood home, and in their automobile were hurrying back to location. The day was hot and dry, and the stars were well covered with dust. Pat O’Brien was at the wheel. (Appropriate sound to indicate moving auto) PAT: Look, what is that down there blocking the road? DEL RIO: It is a cart, such as our peons use. Slow up, Pat, it would be a shame to smash a poor man’s property. LEO: No, no, drive around it. Let’s not waste any time. Somehow I don’t like this part of the country. (all Carrillo speeches in Carrillo accent) PAT: I guess that’s the owner sitting in the road.

With Busby Berkeley staging the dance ensembles — with four smash song hits, Warner Bros., master musical makers, have outdone themselves.
