This is obviously one of the greatest films ever made. Moviedrome was such a good selection, it introduced me to such a wide variety of films. Anyway, it was way too cool for school. Losers beware!
An insightful critique of one of my favorite movies of all time. The comparison w/ Treasure of the Sierra Madre, I had not thought of, but makes good sense
Alfredo Garcia was not Benny's best friend, Jesus Christ. He was his girlfriend's former lover, and so Benny's competitor for her affections. Even dead, she had more feelings for him than Benny.
Did I miss something? Was he best friends with Alfredo? I didn't think they even knew each other other than in passing? He was the lover of his girlfriend but apart from that...
Alfredo Garcia wasn't Benny's best friend, as Alex incorrectly remembers, he was his romantic rival for the affections of his girl. That was their ignoble link.
Love this review and BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA is one of the most neglected, unsung films I know. Bravo Alex and RIP Sam.

Yea that made no sense
Thank you! Was confused about that too! I was like...did I miss something?
My favourite film ever - Just is
Alex looks funny with that hat on.
The algorithm has done it again.
Defo his Best after the Wild Bunch, a modern Western, Benny is basically Peckinpah ......
It's a good film if only because it gave Graeme Garden endless jokes in ISIHAC.

No, You didn't miss anything. Apparently Cox didn't rewatch the film before he did this. Lol.
@@KClouisville thought so lol...still, love the charm of those old curated movies on bbc2
