 Synopses for Mariachi, El (1992)
1.While earning room and board for a song, a down-on-his-luck musician gets into deep hot water when he's mistaken for a guitar case-toting hitman in a small Mexican town. EL MARIACHI was produced by do-it-yourself Austin, Texas auteur Robert Rodriguez (FROM DUSK TILL DAWN, SPY KIDS) on a shoe-string budget for the Mexican video market but earned a major studio release.

2.El Mariachi

All he wants is to be a mariachi, like his father, his grandmother and his great-grandfather before him. But the town he thinks will bring him luck brings only a curse – of deadly mistaken identity. Forced to trade his guitar for a gun, the mariachi is playing for his life in this critically acclaimed film debut from director Robert Rodriguez.



Desperado

Antonio Banderas, Joaquim de Almeida, Salma Hayek, Steve Buschemi, Cheech Marin and Quentin Tarantino star in the stylish shoot-‘em-up described as a south-of-the-border Pulp Fiction.



Director Robert Rodriguez follows up his legendary debut film, El Mariachi, with this sexy sequel about a mysterious guitar player (Banderas) searching for vengeance against the men who murdered his girlfriend.
