Viva Zapata!

Is that Brando?

What have they done to his eyelids? There’s something odd going on there…

I’m 15 minutes in, and so far, this has been a ridiculously awful movie. Indifferent cinematography, risible performances, unbelievable dialogue…

But on the other hand, it’s got at 56% tomatometer.

And:

Senator John McCain listed Viva Zapata! as his favorite film of all time.

So perhaps it’ll pick up.

Such bourgeoisie.

That would be my response, too.

OK, I’m out.

I’m just not seeing it — this seems more like a parody of one of these movies than one of these movies.

Viva Zapata!. Elia Kazan. 1952.
