Mexican singing star Jorge Negrete essays the title role in El Rebelde. When his father is murdered, young Negrete vows revenge against society. Intending to get even with the wealthy rancher responsible for his father's death, Negrete poses as the music teacher of the rancher's pretty daughter Maria Elena Marques. Falling in love with the girl, our hero decides to mend his ways, but is still obliged to kidnap the heroine before her father will consent to their marriage. There's a strong possibility that no one intended El Rebelde to be taken seriously. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
