A short time later, the Mariachi is captured and taken to Moco, who identifies him as the wrong man and sets him free. Moco's thugs capture Azul on the street but release him when they learn that the case he is carrying contains only a guitar. When Azul visits the bar for a beer and information about Moco, he accidentally leaves with the Mariachi's guitar case. Unfortunately, Moco is not only financing the bar, but also has his own romantic interest in Dominó. As the Mariachi seeks refuge in a bar owned by a beautiful woman named Dominó, he quickly falls in love with her. The Mariachi is then forced to kill four of the attackers in self-defense after being chased through the streets.
Only Moco, however, knows Azul's actual face. They are told to look for a man who is wearing black and carrying a guitar case, but because the Mariachi also matches this description, the hitmen mistake him for Azul and start pursuing him. He hopes to find work in the town in order to pursue his dream of becoming a mariachi like his father.įrom the confines of his heavily guarded villa on the outskirts of town, Moco sends a large group of hitmen to kill Azul. Meanwhile, a young musician arrives in town carrying his own guitar case which contains his signature guitar.

Īfter breaking out of jail in a small Mexican town, a ruthless criminal, nicknamed Azul, ventures off with a guitar case full of weapons and vows revenge on the local drug lord, Moco, who had him arrested in the first place.
The film is also recognized by Guinness World Records as the lowest-budgeted film ever to gross $1 million at the box office.
In 2011, El Mariachi was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". The success of Rodriguez's directorial debut led him to create two sequels ( Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico) with Antonio Banderas taking over from Gallardo for the character, though Gallardo co-produced both films and had a minor role in Desperado. Columbia eventually spent $200,000 to transfer the print to film, to remix the sound, and on other post-production work, then spent millions more on marketing and distribution. The US$7,225 production was originally intended for the Mexican home-video market, but executives at Columbia Pictures liked the film and bought the American distribution rights. The Spanish language film was shot with a mainly amateur cast in the northern Mexican bordertown of Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila, Mexico across from Del Rio, Texas, the home town of leading actor Carlos Gallardo as the title character. It marked the feature-length debut of Rodriguez as writer and director. In hindsight, my latter choices are probably much more what you're after.El Mariachi is a 1992 Spanish-language American independent neo-Western film and the first part of the saga that came to be known as Robert Rodriguez's Mexico Trilogy. Sorry, that might have got very varied off the point of what you wanted. :)Īlso check out Chignon on youtube, he does a lot of stuff for Rodriguez (dir. Tbh, even doing a quick search on "mariachi" music might help you find what you're looking for. This might be of better help, more relevant to your tastes too One of my favourites, The Man With No Name And I should add, he does soundtracks though so there's not loads in terms of lyrics, fair amount has vocals though, IIRC. I think a lot of it might be less Mexican, but some of it is very spanish influenced all the same, either way very western so hopefully something you can enjoy.
I would strongly suggest Ennio Morricone's music, he did the Spaghetti Western soundtracks (Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good The Bad & The Ugly) and so many more.
