PictureLux on the red carpet report: "Machete" premiere.
Robert Rodriguez’s, “Machete,” premiered at the Orpheum Theatre in Los
Angeles, CA last night, August 25, 2010. The cast was out in full force
(without Lindsay Lohan), arriving down Broadway in lowriders with
Jessica Alba leading the way in her metallic gold and black, zigzag
Balmain mini dress. Jessica pulled off Balmain’s signature bold shoulder
silhouette by pairing it with cut-out boots by Christian Louboutin. She
limited her jewelry to Anndra Neen bangles.
Cast member
Lindsay Lohan was conspicuous in her absence leaving the promotional
duties of the film to her co-stars including Michelle Rodriguez, Danny
Trejo, Cheech Marin, Don Johnson, Electra Avellan and Director Robert
Rodriguez. Also present at the downtown venue were Quentin Tarantino and
Sarah Silverman among others. (photo © 2010 Joe Martinez/PictureLux)
About the film: The highly
skilled Federale, Machete, is hired by some unsavory types to
assassinate a senator. But just as he's about to take the shot, he
notices someone aiming at him and realizes he's been set up. He barely
survives the sniper's bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former
employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin,
who has become a priest and taken a vow of nonviolence. If you hire him
to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren't you! The film
opens nationwide September 3, 2010.
