excellent latin play
I HAD SEEN THIS PLAY BEFORE WHEN I WAS A CHILD AND I WAS FASCINATED WITH THE CLOTHES THE ZOOT SUITES....AS I BECAME OLDER I WOULD TELL PEOPLE ABOUT THE MOVIE BUT NO ONE AND I MEAN NO ONE HAD EVER HEARD OF IT SO I THOUGHT MAYBE I HAD THE TITLE WRONG WELL LO AND BEHOLD AMAZON HAD IT AND THE NAME WAS RIGHT....THE MOVIE IS EXCELLENT THE TALENT OF JAMES ALMOS IS SUPURB THE MUSIC AND DANCING ALSO MADE THIS PLAY ENJOYABLE ..IT IS A MUST SEE FUN MOVIE MY KIDS ( 3TEENAGERS AND 1 5 YEAR OLD ) SAT THROUGH THE ENTIRE MOVIE SO IT MUST BE GOOD

Edward James Olmos makes this movie!
This movie is worth watching if for no other reason than Edward James Olmos' tour de force performance as the mythical spirit "El Pachuco".

Those interested in historical information regarding the true story around which this musical revolves are encouraged to seek out "The Zoot-Suit Riots: The Psychology of Symbolic Annihilation" by Mauricio Mazon and/or "Murder at the Sleepy Lagoon: Zoot Suits, Race, and Riot in Wartime L.A." by Eduardo Obregon Pagan. (Both books are available via Amazon.)
