Description of this Zorro Poster
Zorro is a 1975 Italian-French international co-production spaghetti western based on the character created by Johnston McCulley. The film was directed by Duccio Tessari and stars Alain Delon in the title role. It was filmed in Almería, Spain. Ottavia Piccolo and Stanley Baker also starred in it, with Zorro being Baker’s last film before his death in 1976. The film was released by United Artists on March 5, 1975, and was a critical and commercial success.
On the eve of his return from Alta California in Spain, Don Diego de la Vega meets his old friend Miguel de la Serna, who is about to take over the governorship of Nueva Aragón. His uncle Don Fernando has died of malaria in a malaria-free region, replaced by the dictatorial and unscrupulous Colonel Huerta. Diego warns the idealistic Miguel, in vain, that Nueva Aragón is ruled by greed and hatred. Later that evening, Miguel is assassinated by Huerta’s minions. Diego vows to avenge Miguel by taking his place, but not before a dying Miguel makes Diego swear that “the new governor will never kill.”
As Colonel Huerta asks the local council to appoint him military and civil governor of Nueva Aragón, Diego suddenly arrives, disguised as de la Serna. While allaying Colonel Huerta’s fears by pretending to be a good-for-nothing, Diego learns that Huerta is a cruel despot, as well as a dangerous swordsman.
With Miguel’s mute, devoted servant Joaquín, and the help of the late Don Fernando’s Great Dane, Assassin, Diego goes among the people and learns how miserable and fearful they are: the innocent are punished for telling the truth, while the guilty, who cheat mercilessly, are branded “respectable” citizens.
Inspired by street urchin Chico’s tales of Zorro, a freedom-loving fox spirit, Diego creates his own black-clad alter ego and launches a campaign for justice with a hilarious, action-packed brawl in the marketplace. After repeatedly outwitting Huerta and his men, Diego eventually stages his own kidnapping (as both governor of the region and Zorro), both to free wrongly held prisoners and to trick Colonel Huerta into thinking they are both dead.
Huerta, finally feeling safe, forces the aristocrat Hortensia Polido to the wedding altar. He shoots Friar Francisco as the friar leads the marchers up the church steps, just as Zorro reappears. Friar Francisco’s murder finally absolves Diego of the vow he made to his deceased friend Miguel, leaving Zorro free to engage Huerta in a sword duel to the death, which he emerges victorious after a long battle.
