Gene and Pokie are on vacation in Mexico when they learn that their buddy Dusty has been bumped off.
Gene's friend has been murdered near a Mexican border crossing and it appears to be the work of jewelry smugglers. Gene meets Elena whose father disappeared at the same border crossing. Elena has some jewels and she lets Gene borrow them. He first uses them to find out who the smugglers are and then uses thembait in an effort to trap them.
Oddball entry in the Autry cowboy cycle. The year is 1947, perhaps the peak year for film noir in Hollywood. The presence of shadowy lighting, darkened streets, and ambiguous characters in "Twilight..." shows how the European film style reached into even the unlikeliest of genres, the matinée Western. About a third of the way through, the movie takes a really surprising turn since Bob Steele was then a cowboy star in his own right. How he came to take this role which could have gone to dozens of non-star supporting players is a mystery to me (I don't want to give away the surprise). But it does seem a curious piece of casting.

The plot is also unusual for a Western-- it's a not-very-well-hidden "who dun' it ?" -- a novel idea, but with a plot too complicated and a mystery too meandering to work very well. There are a few character surprises, along with some mangled Spanish accents. Don't expect much gun play or hard riding, but there is enough knife throwing to satisfy a Ninja warrior. As I recall, the central song "The Old Lamplighter" was a huge popular hit of that day and is nicely staged here. Anyway, the film amounts to something of a curiosity among the Autry Westerns, so the hour should be worth a tune-in..
For a Western cowboy hero, Gene Autry often found himself in some unflattering situations on screen. Like here, when in the Mexican cantina, he inconsiderately yells for Mama Lopez during Elena Del Rio's song performance, then gives her a spanking afterward. Granted, Elena threw a bunch of knives at him, but I think if she really wanted to connect, she would have done a better job. This is actually the second time I've seen Gene spank his leading lady, it also happened in 1935's "Sagebrush Troubador".

Something curious I caught in the opening credits, Gene's horse in this one was Champion Junior. I hadn't really noticed that before in his later films, so I'll have to keep an eye out for that in the future. By the way, Champ did a nice side step dance in that early scene when the Cass County Boys played their first tune.

In the story, Sterling Holloway portrays Gene's sidekick Pokie. Holloway appeared in other Autry pictures, but I've only seen him beforea character in the story who didn't know Gene when the picture started. Veteran Bob Steele started outGene's business partner, but gee, he didn't last very long. I thought for a while into the story that he would pop up againa look alike character on the bad guy side, but things didn't play out that way.

The story involves a jewel smuggling operation which seemed rather clumsily written to me. There were an awful lot of victims with knives in their back just to get some baubles across the border into Texas. Strong writing was never a characteristic of Gene's films, so in that respect, this one followed suit. For fans of Gene who like a Mexican theme, the one to watch is 1941's "Down Mexico Way" featuring an entertaining song and dance number you'll wish was done in color.
