an Argentinean legend, 4 January 2009
7/10
Author: jtaboada from Peru

This is an adaptation of a 19th century novel, which was in turn based in a real story. It's also the first Leonardo Favio film that I've been able to find. It tells the story of a 'gaucho', the rural population of the Argentinean provinces that in the nineteenth century are beginning to be swept by the expanding 'civilization', and who turns into a criminal, a 'bandido', and then starts to get involved in politics. The film's been beautifully shot, with very carefully thought compositions and a photography tending to the poetic or the picturesque. The story is romanticized and epicized, the acting is quite unsophisticated, but all in all, is an enjoyable film. 7 out of 10.
