Nacho Libre is the story of Ignacio- a catholic monk friar who feeds the hungry by day, and moonlights as a flamboyant luchador called Nacho Libre. The film highlights Nacho’s duality between two life paths that he’s equally devoted to and packs in scene-to-scene slapstick comedy, toilet humor, and countless kicks in the ass. I should also mention that it’s loosely based on the true story of a Mexican friar who masqueraded around town as a wrestler to raise money for his church... But I believe there’s more to it than that.
It’s a movie that was co-written and directed by the same indie hero that brought us Napoleon Dynamite and stars Jack Black during the prime of his comedy career. This is a movie that was destined for dollars. But today’s episode is not about how much money the movie raked in, but instead it’s about reading between the lines and looking for the deeper meaning in this otherwise silly and feel-good film. If you’re in the mood to have some laughs and watch a dude on the internet try to assign meaning to the cinematic treasure that is Nacho Libre- then make sure you grab a snack, grab a drink, and Supplex that like button- because today we’re going to figure out once and for all- what's Nacho Libre REALLY about?
