Replace this image with an actor photoRobert Rodriguez mini-bio: Robert Rodriguez was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, USA. At a very young age he showed an interest in cartooning and filmmaking and devoted all his time to this developing fascination. Finally it resulted for him in making real movies, and just first of them - Mariachi, El (1992) - made him the legend of independent ultra-low budget filmmaking. His further career is a sign for young filmmakers that even the most wild dream may come true if you are brave enough to follow your own path. Since then Robert has written, directed, and/or produced up to 10 cool movies, such as Desperado (1995), From Dusk Till Dawn (1996), The Faculty (1998) and Spy Kids (2001).

    Very few directors have ever had a visual style that is as recognizable as Robert Rodriguez. It is clear that he has a love for the medium of film, and of B-movies in particular. If you consider the movies he's done in his career, you'll notice that he's making the same kind of movies that a Roger Cormanor an Ed Wood might make, but with a little tweak here and some camera motion or sped-up film there, he puts together something that's so good, it doesn't have to be a guilty pleasure.
