lol, he wasn't his brother. On the movie he was the bad guy and was trying to kill the good guy, Antonio Banderas.

No. In the end you find out Banderas (Mariachi) is Almeida's (Bucho) younger brother and Bucho also calls him manito. Sorry if I spoiled the movie but I was under the impression you had seen it already, unless it went over your head or you saw a different edit of it.

Strange anyway... they look nothing alike.

And he speaks the whole film in spanish!

I had thought of that but then I forgot I thought of it and so thought somebody had already made the post, if that makes any sense! I can be so stoopid

PS. That movie was pretty stoopid, too. When I watched it I lost count of all the stereotypes and crap.

Yeah, well, Americans. They love stereotypes. But then when there's a funny joke instead of a moral cliché, they find it racist.

They should learn that stereotypes sold as real are far more offensive than things everybody else understand as obvious jokes.

The Catalan actor Jordi Mollà usually -not always- plays Latino roles in Hollywood too, although rather Colombian or undefined. He was Tex-Mex Juan Seguín in the film El Alamo, though. Don't know if that counts.
