- In his "New York Times" review, Andre Sennwald wrote "Under the Pampas Moon" is so bad that after a while you stop resenting it and begin to be amused by its antique humors."
- Rita Cansino's (Rita Hayworth's) part consisted of a few lines of dialogue exchanged with Warner Baxter and a dance, called the "Zamba," which she performed while ostensibly a waitress-entertainer in an Argentine café sequence.
- First credited feature film role for Rita Hayworth, who had an uncredited part one year earlier, in Cruz Diablo (1934).
- Rita Hayworth later recalled that "I remember somebody asked the dialogue director what kind of accent we were supposed to simulate for our characters and he said, 'Standard Hollywood-Mexican-nobody will know the difference!' I guess maybe he was a better critic than dialogue coach since I don't believe too many people saw the picture."
