"From Hollywood to Woodstock" (1969) - The Dream Cast in Photos
In this parody to the Beatles movies (and with some plots to films like "Some Like It Hot", "American Graffiti", etc.), with surrealistic humour and starring the biggest cast in the world in the most absurd plot in movie history.
The film follows a crowd of Latin American dubbing actors in Hollywood, filming a movie adaptation to a 1964 radio concert. Things go wrong when Eduardo Arozamena, one of the dubbing actors and the central protagonist, and Elvis Presley, his Hollywood co-star, suddenly disappear: they god kidnapped by a reckless gang of mobsters, leaded by the Great Kidnapper (Herschel Bernardi). It is task to the actors to face surrealist adventures in the United States to rescue their two partners.
The Latino stars are: optimistic Rafael del Río, fancy Armando Coria, skittish prankster Edgar Wald, cathastrophic Víctor Mares, smarty Armando Ríos, loving and handsome Eduardo Arozamena Pasarón, beautiful Azucena Rodríguez, tip top Julio Lucena, Casanova man Carlos Becerril, shy Armando Gutiérrez, authoritarian but sweet Narciso Busquets, humouristic Jorge Arvizu, comical Víctor Alcocer, lovable dance-lover Santiago Gil, bossy Carlos David Ortigosa, struggler Magdalena Ruvalcaba, cunning Quintín Bulnes, adorable Eugenia Avendaño, and....dammit. There're too many people.
And the Hollywood stars are: Elizabeth Taylor, Elvis Presley, Arnold Stang, Leo De Lyon, Allen Jenkins, Jean Vander Pyl, Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Vincent Price, Tony Curtis, Natalie Wood, Marvin Kaplan, John Stephenson, the Beatles, Peggy Ann Garner, and...dammit. There're too many people.
And even Elvis is here in this parody. This story is set in 1969 in the United States.
The story focuses around a ambitious proyect, "The Big Concert", the new project William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, who call celebrity Orson Welles to hire the entire cast of the 1964 XEW radio concert and make a film adaptation of it, with Eduardo Arozamena, Elizabeth Taylor, Elvis Presley and Azucena Rodríguez as the four title protagonists.
Hilarity ensues, as many different Mexican dubbing actors from the '60s travel throughout the United States to record the film, meeting a big crowd of celebrities. Suddenly, Eduardo Arozamena and Elvis Presley disappear, after a crime mafia kidnaps them while making crimes in the USA, like stealing Quintín Bulnes' golden ring and making everyone to be drunk.
Eduardo Lugo, dressing up as Rip Taylor, the gang and the pals face these and other rare hilarious scenes to rescue Eduardo and Elvis, and to save Quintín's ring. That means a series of surreal events that end up being, in reality, the most hilarious fantasy of every film person.
