Our suggestions
A traveling mariachi is mistaken for a murderous criminal and must hide from a gang bent on killing him.
""El Mariachi" is no more nor less than Robert Rodriguez's cinematic debut, director of films such as "Machete" and "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For". With a low budget and small production in Northern Mexico, Rodriguez filmed this contemporary western that launched his "Mexico Trilogy", which would be continued with Antonio Banderas in the lead role."
