    I had the pleasure of meeting his wife (well at least one of them) in the early seventies in Chihuahua Mexico when I was a kid. She was pretty old at the time but sharp as a tack. I still have pictures of the bullet riddled roadster he was killed in somewhere in the family albums. In fact when I was in there, there were still many old buildings that had bullet holes in them from the revolution.

    Estoy muy orgulloso de decir que vivo en Torreón, Coahuila amo este lugar aqui naci y aqui me voy a morir
  • Props to Antonio Banderas for such an honorable role but the fact still remains: Getting a Spaniard to play the part of one of the most important Mexican revolutionary leaders is akin to getting a British actor to play the part of Ulysses S. Grant.

    Jajaja, en ese entonces Torreón era una ciudad de 40,000 habitantes, no un casco de hacienda.

  • I hope to write the story from my grandfather's perspective: he told me he was very young, about 14 or 15, when the Mexican Army forced him to leave his home. Veronica L. Perez Grijalva-Palmisano

    Also the Texas War of Indepence had many Talaxcalan descendents fighting for Texas. Even Benito Juarez supported Texas independence against Tryanical Santa Ana ( a wealthy spaniard non -mestizo ruler). Even Benito Juarez was a Zapotec who didn't learn spanish till he was 15. I know that my indegenious family changed their surname into a French surname for some perks and bennefits in land. When Villa came out some family changed back to spanish surnames for counter bennefits from madero.

    Not to forget that Mitt Rommney's grandparents also refused to pay Villa's revolutionary tax and left Mexico. A few of the Romneys who already felt part of Mexico, paid the tax and they were able to stay in Mexico.
  • No podía ser otro banderas era el actor q tenía q representar a Villa en una película, un español representando a un mexicano, algo subliminal, viva doroteo a rango, viva pancho villa
