And Starring Pancho Villa As Himself

Film Description

Starring Antonio Banderas as the legendary Pancho Villa, Beresford's star-studded production brings to life a truly surreal story. In the early 1900s, Villa, the enthusiastic Mexican revolutionary, was looking for a way to support his cause. At the same time master filmmaker D.W. Griffith was trying to take cinema to a whole new level. The resulting partnership resulted in the film 'The Life of General Villa', a picture that blurred fiction and reality. In the process, Villa became a cultural sensation, giving both men the acclaim that they desperately seeked.
