There is a potentially wonderful story at the heart of Old Gringo, but the movie never finds it -- the screenplay blasts away in every direction except the bulls-eye.

Chicago Sun-Times
...[Featuring] a nicely unsentimental performance by one of its two certified movie stars, Gregory Peck....Probably one of the best of his career...
Los Angeles Times
Propelled by the desperate yearning of three strangers who meet in Mexico in l913 during Pancho Villa's revolution.

Truthfully, it isn't as bad as its reputation, registering less as an out-and-out disaster and more as a missed opportunity.

While there's nothing inherently awful about Old Gringo, it had the potential to be something more than it is - a semi-coherent romantic melodrama.

Product Description:
A middle-aged spinster (Jane Fonda) decides to escape her cloistered New England life by taking a job as a governess in Mexico. There she falls in love with a passionate young general fighting in Pancho Villa's army, while at the same time finding herself drawn to a mysterious, aging American man. The American turns out to be the journalist Ambrose Bierce (Gregory Peck), who disappeared in Mexico in 1913. The three characters become enmeshed in a love triangle that plays itself out against the dramatic backdrop of the Mexican Revolution. Based on Carlos Fuentes' novel.
