The Latin American Cinemateca of Los Angeles will present, as part of the Last Remaining Seats series, the 1981 film, Zoot Suit, at the Million Dollar Theater, Wednesday, June 22, 2011, 8:00 PM
Celebrating its 30th anniversary, this vivid musical is the filmed version of the play that made Edward James Olmos a star. Olmos reprises his role as the narrator, the mythical “Pachuco”, in this blend of fact and fantasy based on the Sleepy Lagoon murder trial and Zoot Suit Riots of 1940s Los Angeles. Daniel Valdez (also reprising his stage role) stars as Henry Reyna, the leader of a group of young Mexican Americans wrongfully imprisoned for murder. Both the play and film were written and directed by Luis Valdez and feature the music of Daniel Valdez and Lalo Guerrero, the “father of Chicano music.”
The screening will be preceded by a panel discussion with director Luis Valdez, some actors from the film as well as a historian discussing the 1940s social and political climate.
