fascinating story

It's Gonzales, Texas 1901. The Anglos and the Mexicans live side-by-side in tension. Supposedly, criminal Gregorio Cortez (Edward James Olmos) killed the sheriff. The posse sets off to track him down and kill any Mexicans who get in the way. Reporter Blakely (Bruce McGill) joins the group and interviews various members. The truth is slowly revealed.

I've never heard of this movie or this story. Edward James Olmos was gaining some notice at the time. This came out the same year as Blade Runner. I like the story. I would keep Boone Choate under wraps a little more. His obvious racism takes away from the audience slowly discovering the truth. We know the guy is a liar almost right away. Certainly, the movie has a point of view and some Texas Ranger fans are not going to like this movie.
