Compañía:

Columbia Pictures Corporation

Trivialidades:

Adrian Alonso, who plays Joaquín, did not know English, so he learned all his lines phonetically; Antonio Banderas, who plays his father in this film, did the same thing for his performance in _Mambo Kings (1992)_.

Errores:

Errores cometidos por los personajes (posiblemente errores deliberados por los cineastas): The "R" sound in the word "Zorro" is pronounced as a hard, rolled "R". When Elena pronounces it, she pronounces it with a soft "R". A woman raised in Spain, as her character is, would definitely not pronounce it this way.

Citas:

Zorro: Elena... My family is my life.

A great action film, period.

When I just was taking for granted that action films nowadays were about car, motorcycle and boat chases with ultra modern weapons, I went to see "The Legend of Zorro" and I had a great feeling. The sequence of the train at the end is fantastic. The fact that Zorro has his wife and son helping him in the fights adds more interest to the story, which is about the time when California was going to become a state and just before the civil war. When I read reviews about this film they were not so great, so I wonder what those critics were expecting. I know that people in the movie theater were having a lot of fun. It seems there is a tendency to judge all films by the parameters you would apply to an Ingmar Bergman. The Legend of Zorro has great action, if you like this kind of film don't miss it and don't pay attention to the critics.
