Directed by Robert Rodriguez and starring Antonio Banderas, the film follows the Mariachi as he seeks revenge against a powerful cartel figure. Expanding on the story introduced in El Mariachi, it develops the character within a larger-scale narrative centered on organized crime and personal vendetta. Arrow Video After turning the independent film world upside-down with his inventive microbudget debut, writer-director Robert Rodriguez continued the myth of the mysterious Mariachi in the follow-up Desperado, armed with all the explosive pyrotechnics that Hollywood studio money can buy! A shadowy figure stalks the Mexican underworld, travelling from town to town with only a guitar case in hand; however, what El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) has on his mind isnt music, but merciless vengeance. With enough bullets up his sleeves for every bandito in his path, the guitar-playing gunslinger has his sights firmly set on taking down a powerful drug lord (Joaquim de Almeida), but only the love of a local bookstore owner (Salma Hayek) will help the Mariachi get out of town alive. With a rogues gallery of memorable supporting turns from the likes of Danny Trejo, Steve Buscemi, Cheech Marin and Quentin Tarantino, Rodriguezs instant action classic blends American indie cool and Hong Kong hyper-kineticism with a Latino flavor firmly the directors own. Från IMDB: El Mariachi returns to a Mexican border town, confronting Bucho and his men with calculated vengeance, finding sparse allies in Carolina, a bookstore owner, as past wounds fuel escalating violence.
