What happens

Under A Texas Moon is a 1930 American pre-Code musical Western film directed by Michael Curtiz, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, and photographed entirely in Technicolor. It was based on the novel Two-Gun Man (from 1929) which was written by Stewart Edward White. It was the second all-color, all-talking feature to be filmed entirely outdoors, as well as being the second Western in color and the first all-talking, all-color Western. The film features one theme song by the title of "Under A Texas Moon." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
