Lopez the Bandit [archived newspaper article]

 

Lopez The Bandit

Entirely in French

      The American Far West has long seduced our imagination. There, man is placed directly in front of the terrible struggles for life. Doubtless, the laws there cannot be so strictly observed as in our civilized countries. It gives the individual all his energy to defend his life and his good.

      LOPEZ THE BANDIT is one of those where men imagine living in distant lands. A bandit, Lopez? Certainly not. But a man whose quick blood sometimes drags him a little far. And if a few peccadilloes are disturbed, it only disturbs his conscience a little, his heart is courageous and upright. In the beautiful film that The EMPIRE will play next week. Lopez a wandering rogue and a young woman with the machinations of real bandits and sacrificing her love will unite her to the man she loves.

      Entirely spoken in French, LOPEZ LE BANDIT is a film of great interest, interpreted by VITAL, Daniel MENDAILLE Suzy VERNON, Jeanne HELBLING and a host of great artists. You will like it because you will live, by seeing it, a beautiful life of adventures.


Lopez the Bandit is the French release of 1930’s American film of “The Bad Man” based on the play of the same name and directed by John Daumery.

  1. If they remade the film today, it would either be a Spanish-language Western or a Contemporary Western that takes place in Texas and involves El Chapo and the cartel. Hey, that gives me an idea.
