A Trailer For San Sebastian Opener, Mexican Western CHICOGRANDE
Taking the opening slot at the upcoming San Sebastian Film Festival is Felipe Cazals' western drama Chicogrande, and why not? If the trailer is anything to go by this thing is absolutely sumptuous. Here's how San Sebastian describes it:

Following the frustrated invasion of Columbus, Pancho Villa retreats, only to be injured in the leg by Carranza's troops in the city of Guerrero. The North Americans, on Mexican territory, launch a massive campaign to capture him dead or alive. Convalescent, Villa takes refuge deep in the mountains. Chicogrande, a young follower of Villa, is given the task of finding medical assistance and is prepared to give up his own life in the attempt.

The interesting thing here is that the trailer actually appears to focus more on the American Cavalry in pursuit of Villa than on Villa himself, which makes for an interesting spin on the film's perspective. While I'm not 100% sold on the English language performances here everything else looks absolutely spot on. Check the trailer below.
