Argument: Pancho Villa, after his abortive invasion of Columbus (New Mexico) in 1916, sets out the withdrawal and Ciudad Guerrero was wounded in the leg by Carranza troops.
Americans, in Mexico, initiated a massive manhunt to capture him alive or dead. Villa, convalescent, takes refuge in the mountains, deep in the mountains.
Chicogrande, a Pancho Villa, has a mandate to get health care and are willing to sacrifice his own life to do . ---
My opinion: Honestly film veteran Mexican filmmaker Felipez Cazals, which fails to convince at all for the sake of a meager but steady pace, and the apparent lack of emotion in the story. However
is interesting because it tells a true story, where the grandeur of man is reflected in the maintenance of the word to other similar loyalty to both a cause and, above all, to another person.
A ridiculous fact, the invasion of the Army of the United States to Mexico because of the attack by Pancho Villa at Columbus (New Mexico), brings the fierce struggle, not only among men, but especially between different cultures, different ways of seeing life and death, honor and violence to achieve victory.
Very well photographed and with good interpretive efforts by actors and actresses, it is entertaining, but is missing more guts and courage in staging. Therefore
worth his vision, but more to the background by the way .
