Why is this docu-film not better known?!? A very good documentary on the life of Francisco "Pancho" Villa, told by his son, daughter and people who fought with him. It's a priceless archive because of the age of the people involved, all first hand witnesses. It could be subtitled, "A Tour of Mexican Nursing Homes", and you wonder if anyone is going to fall over dead during the filming. That's important because you realize this was THE last chance to get so many eye-witness accounts of Villa's life.
In Spanish, my DVD had good English subtitles. Might be a bit dry for some, but I really liked it, has great mariachi style music, and as a historical record goes, it is simply priceless.
Thank you, Francesco Taboada Tabone, for making this!!!
