In the first half, El Topo (Alejandro Jodorowsky) accompanied by his naked son is a violent gunfighter whose mission is to confront four renowned gunfighters. Before each one dies he learns something of importance. In the second half El Topo's travels find him looking for personal redemption learning the ways of peace. Re-released on a newly restored print, EL TOPO became a cult film and initiated the whole Midnight Movie phenomena of the counterculture-crazy 1970s. |
