Absolutely the worst movie.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Some people subtitle this movie as Indian Love; the reason is perfectly clear. Tizoc (Pedro Infante) is an Indian who works hard while the rest of the indians envy and even hate him. One day he meets the most beautiful woman on earth, María, (María Félix) so takes her as the Virgin of the local church.The woman is member of a wealth country-family, one of the richest of the region. However the wealthy, beautiful and Virgin-like woman befriends the poor but hard working Indian.One day Tizoc is hurt by another Indian. María witnesses this and gives him a white handkerchief to wipe his blood. ¡Alas! The man goes crazy. In fact she ignores that to offer a white handkerchief to an Indian of this region means to accept him as the husband.Now Tizoc works harder to build the house where he and Maria should come to live. No matter what, Tizoc won't listen to anybody, not even the local priest: he is convinced that Maria wants to be his wife.After a few days he comes to believe that Maria has made a fool of him. So, angry, he kidnaps her and takes her to a mountain. Even the Army comes after him to rescue the wealthy woman, but also the other indians who hate Tizoc.In captivity Maria talks to Tizoc and he realizes his misunderstanding. So he lets her go free. But then one of the other indians, trying to kill Tizoc, shoots her an arrow to kill her. The saddest Tizoc takes out the arrow from her breast and plunges it into his own chest.Perhaps the most famous passage of this movie is when Tizoc sings her Te quiero más que a mis ojos. Te quiero más que a mis ojos. Pero quiero más a mis ojos Pero quiero más a mis ojos porque mis ojos te vieron (I love you more than my eyes, I love you more than my eyes. But I love more my eyes, but I love more my eyes because my eyes saw you)Moved, she begins to weep. Then, when he realizes that she's crying, with a rock hits the mouth that has made her cry.On April, 15th, 1957 Pedro Infante died on a plane crash. However, months later his character as Tizoc got him the Berlin's Silver Bear for Best Actor (while Twelve Angry Men got the Golden Bear)

The last Film of the duo Rodriguez-Infante,didn't result so spectacular as someone could expect, even it get together the greatest star of the Mexican Movies,Pedro Infante and Maria Felix, everyone in a character according with their personality,Rodriguez, viewed Infante'simplicity comparable with a Mexican Indigenous,however he exaggerated to give him very infantile manners,with Maria's character he didn't have so much to add, that is to say she was haughty and arrogant exactly same of the actress,the popular sense of the Ismael Rodriguez matched perfectly with all the folklore shown in the film,the indigenous traditions,several kind of rituals,and others things which impress foreign audience, maybe more than the story that Rodriguez try to tell, for example we can see to Infante sing a curios song to the Virgen Mary in the church later he did the same to Maria, who confuse( first time he saw her) with the virgin,but this is not an impediment to pretend to get married with her ,more convincing than the starring couple is Julio Aldama as the mean Indian Nicuil .Personally I consider Tizoc far to be the best performance of Pedro Infante,but as a Mexican make suppose to be proud that Infante won the silver Bear in the Berlin Festival having an opponent like Marlon Brando,in spite of Tizoc doesn't seem a worthy ending for a such important duo(Rodriguez-Infante) in our Cinematography

i don't know if this is a great love story, i think it's more a story about sacrifice, what would you do for the one you love?, and in some way deals with the racism that exists in mexico, (even though some people think there's no racism in Mexico), like in all diverse societies there's racism, just like there's poor people, rich people, ignorant people and very well educated people, so you have this dirt pour mexican indian, who's not the most popular lad in town (you see even among his people there's envy and hatred for those a little different), the only things he cares about is putting food on his plate and flowers in the church altar, until one day he sees her, is she the virgin mary? an angel?, she's his goddess, he knows he's not worthy of her, so he decides to become worthy, use every ounce of his strength to give her something close to what she's used to being a rich spoiled bit**, (lady) from the big city, she could never see him as more than a friend, a companion (comparable to a pet, maybe a lap dog or something), he would sacrifice every thing for her, could she do the same?, could she really feel love for this poor dude, i like this movie because i feel for Tizoc, cast perfectly in the role of the bit**, sorry, Maria is the real life bit**, Maria Felix, and Pedro Infante (the mexican elvis) as Tizoc.

Tizoc a great unknown movie, is one of the great romantic films of all times . Two great stars shine in the beautiful and poignant images of this mexican tragedy : Pedro Infante, singer , mexican icon , who dies in 1957 , victim of a plane crash , and María Felix ,eho has died in april 2002 .
