The Life of General Villa (sh. Život generala Ville) je američki crno-bijeli nijemi ratno-biografski igrano-dokumentarni film snimljen 1914. godine u režiji Christyja Cabbannea. Snimljen je u Meksiku za vrijeme revolucije i posvećen je životu meksičkog revolucionarnog vođe Pancha Ville, čiji lik u mladim danima tumači Raoul Walsh, dok se sam Villa pojavljuje u scenama koji prikazuju njegovu zamišljenu budućnost predsjednika Meksika. Villa je snimanje američkim sineastima omogućio zahvaljujući ugovoru kojim mu je obećano 25.000 US$ i 50 % od prihoda filma; filmaši su zauzvrat dobili nesmetani pristup na bojištu ua dnevne scene kao i Villine vojnike kao besplatne statiste. Film je sadržavao autentične scene borbi, ali su snimljena i masovna pogubljenja i sakaćenja leševa. Usprkos tome, The Life of General Villa je doživio ogroman komercijalni uspjeh. Njegove kopije, međutim, nisu sačuvane, te se, osim nekoliko u montaži odbačenih snimaka, smatra izgubljenim.

Snimanje filma je 2003. postalo predmetom televizijskog filma And Starring Pancho Villa as Himself gdje je Villu tumačio Antonio Banderas.
