“You can’t oppress someone who isn’t afraid anymore.” The early days of César Chavez’ heroic movement are chronicled in Diego Luna’s new film.
Michael Peña, Rosario Dawson, and America Ferrera have been working on Diego Luna’s biopic of César Chavez forever and a day. Now, finally, we get a glimpse of the film, and it doesn’t fail to impress on any level–including what looks like a standout performance by John Malkovich.
Jacob Vargas, Yancey Arias, Maynor Alvarado, Claudia Vázquez, and a host of other Latino actors are part of the project as well; we’re sure to see more as the new year dawns and we approach the April 4, 2014 premiere.
