Viva Zapata! Reviews
Viva Kazan!!
A great film directed by Elia Kazan, written by John Steinbeck and scored by Alex North. These are the ingredients of a great film. Brando plays the brooding Zapata in fine style. Joseph Wiseman a standout as a corrupt revolutionary and Alan Reed as Villa.
Anthony Quinn shows us all how to win an Oscar when your screen time is so little. Quinn, as Zapata,s, brother takes the viewer to another world of acting a role, his performance is a knockout.
Louis Gilbert has a soul for the times..and this is a good chance to see " Margo" in one of her later films.Quinn,s execution scene is one of the best two minutes put on film in a very long time. No video collection should be without this film.
Visually opulent in Black a White CP
Viva Zapata Viva Great Filmaking!!
Of all the Marlon Brando films made in the 50,s, this is the film that is mostly overlooked and forgotten. The cast is uniformly excellent ! Anthony Quinn won an " Oscar" for his efforts in this film. His death scene is one of the best in the cinema. Joseph Wiseman is also not to be forgotten as a metaphor for the politics of that period. Alex North,s film score is superb...matching his work in " A Streetcar Named Desire" John Steinbeck,s Script is always on target. The final scene is a message itself. CP
