Review of Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (1974) by Timothy M — 05 Nov 2010

A bit of a disappointment, truth be told. It never quite gelled for me. There are individual scenes that I like quite a bit, but the product as a whole left me cold. I like Warren Oates' performance though - very interesting and unusual, and it's always nice to see a supporting character player get a starring role.

Gig Young is also quietly awesome. Maybe the title led me to expect something other than what was essentially a love story for its entire first act. Maybe.
