More disappointment in revolutions

Tepepa (1969)

Directed by Giulio Petroni this film stars Tomas Milian, Orson Wells and John Steiner. An English doctor hunts down a revolutionary during an interlude in the Mexican revolution.

The plot of this film is a standard Zapata western looking at the failure of revolution to live up to it's goals and has a side order of revenge fantasy. None of the content is especially original or insightful but is a fairly standard genre entry. What drew me to this was seeing Orson Wells in a spaghetti western but sadly both his screen time and performance are limited.


3/5
