Viva Maria!
Viva Maria! is a French western comedy was directed by Louis Malle in 1965 about two women named Maria who meet and become revolutionaries in the early 20th century. Maria Fitzgerald O'Malley (Brigitte Bardot) is the daughter of an Irish political dissident who has traveled to Latin America with her father to take part in an anarchist political uprising. When her father is killed, Maria, left to her own devices, happens upon a traveling circus, where she strikes up a friendship with one of the performers, french singer also named Maria (Jeanne Moreau). Maria O'Malley joins up with the carnival, and she works up a dance routine with Maria; the act is a smash hit, especially after the Irish Maria accidentally loses part of her costume during a performance. Despite their success, the two Marias find themselves increasingly distressed with the poverty and brutality of the peasants' lives, and they soon decide to use their talents in support of revolutionary leader Flores (George Hamilton). But Florès was insidiously shot from by gun of landowner Rodriguez (Carlos López Moctezuma). On his deathbed, Mary swears he will continue his fight and joins with his friends to a peon uprising.
