Description of this Zorro Movie Poster
The Sign of Zorro is a 1940 American black and white western film from 20th Century Fox, directed by Rouben Mamoulian, produced by Darryl F. Zanuck, starring Tyrone Power, Linda Darnell and Basil Rathbone. In the supporting roles, we find Eugene Pallette, Gale Sondergaard and Robert Lowery (the second actor to play Batman in the cinema).
The Sign of Zorro was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Score. The film was entered into the National Film Registry in 2009 by the Library of Congress for its "cultural, historical, or aesthetic significance", and to be preserved forever.
The film is based on the novel The Curse of Capistrano by Johnston McCulley, originally published in 1919 in five installments in All-Story Weekly, which features the masked hero Zorro; the story takes place in Southern California in the early 19th century. After the enormous success of the 1920 silent film adaptation, the novel was re-released under that name by Grosset & Dunlap.
Don Diego Vega is urgently called home by his father. In appearance, he is the elegant son of the wealthy ranchero, former alcalde Don Alejandro Vega, who returned to Alta California after his military training in Spain.
Don Diego is horrified by the way the common people are now mistreated by the corrupt alcalde, Luis Quintero, who had forced his father from his position as leader. Don Diego quickly adopts the persona of El Zorro ("The Fox"), a masked outlaw dressed entirely in black, who becomes the defender of the common people and the champion of justice against the indifferent Quintero and his garrison of soldiers.
At the same time, he befriends the alcalde's beautiful and innocent niece, Lolita, with whom he becomes in love. As part of his plan, Don Diego simultaneously flirts with Inez, the alcalde's wife, filling her head with tales of Madrid fashion and culture, while sparking her desire to move to Spain with her corrupt husband, Luis .
In either case, Don Diego must still face the Governor's most capable henchman, the malicious and deadly Captain Esteban Pasquale. When the situation becomes critical, he ends up killing the captain during a duel to the death with a rapier, under the stunned gaze of the alcalde. This action leads to a forced regime change with the help of the people of Los Angeles, other landowners and his father. This became Don Diego's long-term plan for change from the moment he returned to California and saw how bad things had become in Los Angeles while he was away.
