TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

At the end, when Zorro confronts Captain Love, he pulls out his sword, and the sun glints off the blade running the full length. This was not CGI, and was suggested by Antonio Banderas. He had to tilt the sword to catch the sun without breaking eye contact with Matt Letscher. It only took three takes.

Antonio Banderas was extremely adamant about performing many of his own stunts for authenticity.

Originally, Sir Anthony Hopkins refused the part of Don Diego de la Vega because of his back pain. A laser operation made it possible for him to accept the part.

Legendary sword trainer Bob Anderson, who trained Errol Flynn, remarked that Antonio Banderas was the most gifted swordsman with whom he had worked since Flynn. Banderas had also trained with the Spanish Olympic team for four months.

There is a distinct difference between the costumes for Don Diego de la Vega (Sir Anthony Hopkins) as Zorro and Alejandro Murrieta (Antonio Banderas) as Zorro. Costume designer Graciela Mazón claimed that de la Vega's costume portrayed his Spanish heritage, while Alejandro's portrayed his Mexican heritage.

Popular Dialogues

"Elena: [in a confessional, Alejandro posing as a priest] I have broken the fourth commandment, padre. Alejandro Murrieta: You killed somebody? Elena: No, that is not the fourth commandment. Alejandro Murrieta: [pause] Of course not. Tell me, in what way did you break the most sacred of commandments. Elena: I dishonored my father. Alejandro Murrieta: That is not so bad. Maybe your father deserved it. Elena: What? Alejandro Murrieta: I said tell me more, my child."

"Don Diego de la Vega: There is a saying, a very old saying: when the pupil is ready the master will appear."
