Description

[Machine Translation] A man goes to Nicagalagua with a mission and becomes a "dictator". A problematic work by the genius Alex Cox, a scathing critic of American society! --In the mid-19th century, a group of American soldiers failed to overthrow a Mexican dictatorship. After returning home, William Walker's (Ed Harris) next mission is to take control of Nicaragua, a small country that is an economic hub but continues to suffer from political instability. After leading his "58 Immortals" to conquer the entire country, Walker became president and ruled Nicaragua himself, but he was criticized not only by the local people but also by his home country, the United States, for his brutality... This is a powerful film that depicts the strange fate of the real William Walker with the black humor that only Alex Cox can deliver. Despite the seriousness of the subject matter, the film is a sophisticated comedy. Ed Harris ("The Hours"), who plays Walker, gives an excellent and sharp performance.
