Antonio Aguilar Movies

Antonio Aguilar was a major Mexican musical personality and action star of the 1950s and 1960s. His prowess at both singing and fisticuffs also enabled him to be compared favorably with several of Hollywood's top Western personalities. In films from 1952, Aguilar occasionally made appearances in American films with Mexican backgrounds. One of his most memorable English-language film roles was the antagonistic General Rojos in the sprawling, brawling John Wayne/Rock Hudson vehicle The Undefeated (1969). Aguilar died of pneumonia after a battle with heart disease at age 88. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Soldiers of Pancho Villa: 1959

Soldiers of Pancho Villa is the English-language title for the Mexican historical epic La Cucaracha. The matchless Maria Felix stars as a patriotic young woman whose admiration for Villa borders on the fanatical. Maria rallies her countrymen to stand by Villa in his fight to wrest control of Mexico from the oppressive aristos. Dolores Del Rio also appears, leading one to muse about the degree of tension that must have existed on the set between two of Mexico's most gorgeous actresses. Emilio Fernandez and Pedro Armendariz round out the all-star cast. Shown but fitfully on American television in the 1960s, Soldiers of Pancho Villa was frequently showcased on the Univision cable service of the 1980s and 1990s. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A reformed criminal looking to turn over a new leaf finds that even wealth and success aren't enough to turn off his criminal impulses in a classic Mexican comedy starring Pedro Infante and Marga Lopez. Upon realizing the errors of his criminal ways, Pedro (Infante) gets a job as a salesman and attempts to go legit. As luck would have it, Pedro finds great success in his new venture and soon acquires both a beautiful mistress and all the wealth a man could hope for. Problems arise, however, when the thrill of the criminal life simply becomes too powerful to resist and Pedro joins some shady old friends in a dangerous drug robbery. When an innocent man is falsely implicated in the crime, the hoodlum-at-heart soon finds himself torn between his sordid desire to break the law, and his sorrow at seeing the wrongly accused man suffer. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
