Audio 2: Commentary by Director Alex Cox and Writer/Producer Lorenzo O’Brien.
An episodic look at a young man’s life in Mexico’s national highway patrol. We follow Pedro Rojas from cadet training and his rookie assignment in a northern border area, to his quick courtship, his taking of bribes (“la mordida”), and his slow exposure to drug smuggling. Rojas re-forms his idealism as youthful naivete gives way to an adult’s complicated choices.
“Repo Man” is a minor classic, and special of its kind (if it even *has* a kind ?), but somehow this one really got to me. Hard to explain why. Possibly the predicament of some fundamentally decent person who desires to do the right thing, but is placed in an impossible situation, outside of their control.
