When school teacher Harriet Winslow goes to Mexico to teach, she is kidnapped by Gen. Tomas Arroyo and his revolutionaries. An aging American, Ambrose "Old Gringo" Bierce also in Mexico, befriends Gen. Arroyo and meets Harriet. Bierce is a famous writer, who knowing that he is dying, wishes to keep his identity secret so he can determine his own fate. Though he likes Arroyo, Bierce tries to provoke the General's anger whenever possible in an attempt to get himself killed, thus avoiding suffering through his illness. Winslow is intrigued by both Bierce and Arroyo, and the men are in turn attracted to her. She becomes romantically involved with Arroyo. When Winslow learns of Bierce's true identity (a writer whose work she has loved and respected for years), she is singlemindedly determined to fulfill his dying wish.
Leave your thoughts about Old Gringo.
| Apollo GuideRyan CracknellWhile there's nothing inherently awful about Old Gringo, it had the potential to be something more than it is - a semi-coherent romantic melodrama. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonTruthfully, it isn't as bad as its reputation, registering less as an out-and-out disaster and more as a missed opportunity. |
| User ReviewSheila CTaking place in the Mexican Revolution, this story involves a lot of conflict and an intriguing love triangle. |
| User ReviewFilmGrinder Sone peck's final film he is perfectly cast as the title character. |
| User ReviewClaire FNot a typical Western Movie, but great. Great acting though there was a lack in the plot. Watchable I say. |
| User ReviewUriel HUna pelÃcula de buena factura y buena historia. A los crÃticos no les gustó mucho, pero es una buena oportunidad de ver a Gregory Peck en una de sus última pelÃculas al lado de Jane Fonda. |
| User ReviewAndré DEl director Luis Puenzo y los actores Jimmy Smits y Jane Fonda destruyen la obra de Carlos Fuentes, convirtiendola en un drama meloso y casi imposible de soportar. Es una lastima qu el gran Gregory Peck haya participado en semejante infamia. |
| User ReviewFrances HOne would think a movie with Gregory Peck playing Ambrose Bierce and starring Jane Fonda as the female lead would be a really fascinating flick, but Peck seems to flounder, Fonda acts like a flustered ditz, and the script is abysmal. A big disappointment. |
| User ReviewDean MNo wonder Jane Fonda gave up films after striving so long to drag this average Mexican epic to the screen. She plays a spinster who gets daught up with Pancho Villa's revolution and discovers her own sexuality along the way. It's a pretty dull revolution, hardly worth waking Gregory Peck up for. |
| User ReviewJ KMeh, didn't like it all that much. A bit too melodramatic for my tastes. |
