PNQ: Are Zorro movies Westerns?
It's an interesting question. What makes a Western a Western? Do they have to be set in the United States? Is there a distinct "era of the cowboy" (quick Googling places the cowboy era at about 1870-1880, and the Zorro stories about 1810-1820)? Or is it a cultural division (Zorro may take place in California, but it was still Spanish and not American)?
I'm not sure.
