Rock n Roll Made in Mexico: From Evolution to Revolution (2007) User Reviews

An important chapter in history

[decusa · 10/10 · 19 February 2008]

Few people are aware of the importance of the evolution of Rock and Roll in Mexico--or that all the turmoil of the 60s and early 70s experienced in the U.S. connected to music was paralleled by an even greater turmoil in Mexico.

Kent State cost four valuable lives, but what about the hundreds gunned down in Mexico by an even more threatened, even more repressive privileged class and their mercenary soldiers? This is an important chapter of history that not only needs not to be forgotten--it needs to be told in the first place. Bravo to these filmmakers for paying attention!

Rare look into unknown history by Miccio and De la Parra.

'Rock n Roll Made in Mexico ,From Evolution to Revolution' Wowed the crowd at The Beverly Hills Premiere of the Film on February 15th . Many Celebrities were on hand including this years Oscar Nominee Francesco Quinn, Director, Paul Provenza ,and Ry Cooder. The LA Times review that described the film as Gripping and Compelling ' provided a full house to the untold story . A great rare work of honesty with a human touch and a warm sense of humor . Miccio and His Partner Fito de la Parra honor Mexican musicians in there film while introducing them to a new generation who have no idea of Mexican Rock's tortured past . This is an important film !
