While there's a lot of sensuality running throughout Frida, the role is definitely far removed from that of a sex symbol. These films predominantly featured her in racy sex symbol type of roles. Most American audiences are familiar with Hayek from her turn in more action-oriented films like Desperado, From Dusk Till Dawn, and Fled.

To this end the film is rife with themes of loyalty and betrayal or as Hayek herself puts it, "To me it's about unconditional love and endurance, if you have to sum it up in one word." Ironically, endurance is something Hayek has in spades. At its roots, however, it's really about finding the human quality within these epic characters, the types of qualities that everybody can relate to. Sure, on the surface the film chronicles the epic lives of Frida, her husband Diego Rivera, and the colorful cast of characters that surrounded them during their lifetime. More than seven years in the making, Hayek not only stars in the lead role, but also produced the film, which is much more than just the story of famous Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. If this film was made to be based around all vampire killing, then it would receive a mediocre view from most, but the fun characters (especially Tarantino, who plays a pervert ), creative killing.Hayek's latest film, Frida is her most recent passion. Alot of people may be irritated by the plot change, because one minute they're enjoying a crime based story, then ridiculous things happen next that show no seriousness. Even if you have a weak stomach, the comedic things that occur make up for the blood and gore you sit through. In the same idea as movies such as Peter Jackson's "Braindead", Robert Rodriguez makes killing fun to watch with such things as a guitar made from a dead body, and a gun attached to a guy's waistline shaped like that to yourself to figure out. As I will leave it to you to watch and see what crazy things happen in the bar as spoilers make for no fun, I will say that the killing and gore is more along the lines of comedy than horror if you are refferring to the entertainment factor.
SALMA HAYEK DUSK TILL DAWN FUN FACTS MOVIE
The second half of the movie changes the roles of the characters around as the kidnappers become the prey also.

Havoc breaks loose at such an unexpected time and place for vampires! At this point in the movie, the whole genre changes unexpectedly. The two brothers plan to have the meeting at a crazy bar/truckstop, appropriatley named "From Dusk til' Dawn" because it is open inbetween just those times.

On the way, they kidnap a retired preacher and his two teenage kids to use as a tool to get across the border, since their own faces are widely recognized by police. The story starts out with the "Gecko brothers" (clooney and tarantino) traveling towards Mexico for a meeting with some other crime buffs which involves money. Sounds very strange indeed, but it's just that thrilling change of the plot which makes the whole experience exciting enough to the point where you think "I can't get bored now". I'd put this movie towards the top of the list of films that don't have a defenite genre, because one minute you're watching criminals trying to deal with a family of hostages, and the next minute, everything is interupted by blood-sucking vampires.

Directed by Robert Rodriguez and starring female favorite, George Clooney, from the long running show "ER", Salma Hayek, Cheech Martin, and Juliette Lewis, "From Dusk til' Dawn" is a fun movie to sit through, pretty much no matter what kind of genres you're into. No unauthorized reprinting, publishing or other use allowed without permissionįor an aspiring director, you don't expect Quentin Tarantino to not only star in a movie as a main character, but not direct the movie he wrote either.
