This is an easygoing and enjoyable film based on one mans life during the Mexican revolution, rather than a focus on the battle between the Federales and the revolutionaries. This should be interesting to watch as it should gives us a broader perspective of what the everyday citizen had to deal with during the that traumatic time, however Aguilar has given us a prolonged interpretation of a man's life and the love for his horse and woman, which lacks originality. Nevertheless, a rather comical view can be taken on this film, with its melodramatic long-shots of the characters faces entwined with dramatic music, and the over-exaggerated use of diegetic music. Also adding to the comedy are the somewhat illiterate subtitles. All in all this film projects comedy as well as corruption and trauma thus making it an overall realistic projection of the revolution.
