The life of the Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata.
Sinekatalog’s take
Elia Kazan's Mexican Revolution biopic stars Marlon Brando as Zapata with John Steinbeck's script. Powerful and intelligent about power and corruption, though Brando's casting is a product of its era.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
