El Norte (1983)
El Norte....
I first saw this movie when I was a kid and it just stayed with me. There are still some scenes that I don't forget. This is a really sad yet great story of a brother and sister who come to the US and how they suffer. You can practically feel the love and respect that they have for each other, it's wonderful. The parts that most stick in my mind are the Mexican sweet bread theft, the dryer machine incident and the rats in the sewer. It's been over 15 years since I've seen it. Great actors in this movie and good, realistic theme. It is an absolutely awesome movie and I would totally recommend it to everyone! Enjoy it!!!!
Rigo, una confesión total (1979)
Wow
Two words: Mass Hysteria!
This dude had it all. Women, money, fame, love, the gift of charity, .....I mean EVERYTHING. So his eyes gave up on him and he went blind. Sad. His son is now starting to sing and record as well. Good luck to him.
His music- His music is a cool tropical cumbia beat. The lyrics are mostly romantic and melancholic. He was a sweet and loving man and this shows through his music.
He was heard internationally in many countries and was the most known "Idol" of the 70's! I am only 24 years old but can see why Rigo was loved. This film is about his career, his life, his family, etc. It is told by the man himself. It's and old film but you'll get the point.
Amar te duele (2002)
Great Movie
So it's a Romeo and Juliet type movie only it has to do with class differences and color In Mexico, there is much racism and hate against dark and poor people but these two young lovers do not care. They fight against all odds to continue their relationship but this all ends in tragedy. Cute guys! Great actors and lots of fun too! Most of the youth in this movie began acting careers as children. I recommend this movie as well as others like Sexo Pudor y Lagrimas, Amores Perros and Ladies Night although this last one is more like a "chick flick" because there are male strippers, a bachelorette party, many guys and lots of fun! The others are great though!
