The Mask of Zorro

After humiliating Don Rafael Montero, the Spanish governor, Don Diego de la Vega, a mysterious, black-capped, masked avenger for the oppressed in 1821 California, Don Diego de la Vega (-Zorro) is again sent to jail. The grizzled swordsman, with Don Rafael’s only child as his, makes an eloquent escape almost two decades later. He takes Alejandro Murietta, an unrefined criminal, under his wing to help him learn the ropes, hopefully becoming the next Zorro. The stage is now set for an explosive final confrontation as Alejandro Murietta, a young rapier-wielder, prepares to stop the governor’s evil plans. Alejandro can Alejandro live up legendary Zorro? –Nick Riganas
