Review of Viva Zapata!

Viva Zapata! (1952)
7/10
Hollywood Zapata
1 January 2004
Surprisingly good Hollywood approach to the life of Emiliano Zapata by Elia Kazan and John Steinbeck, the kind of film that if made today would cause a controversy due to its lack of authenticity in self-representational terms. Marlon Brando, who plays the peasant leader victimized by the powerful, would later join the opposite party in Gillo Pontecorvo's "Queimada!"
