Charm

Zorro and Don Diego both exude charisma that pierces through the screen. Zorro uses his charm to capture the love of Lolita in The Mark of Zorro (1940) and Elena in The Mask of Zorro (1998). Don Diego uses his charm to snake around the corrupt and cruel governors of Spanish California, all while maintaining his facade as a popinjay.
