VivirLatino

According to an article in today’s New York Times, many Spanish language films from Latin America, like Paréntesis from Chile, are languishing in search of U.S. distributors. Seems that Spanish speakers here are more likely to go home and switch on their favorite novela or drop $10 on an escapist Hollywood flick than they are to support filmmakers coming out of Latin America. So the industry is responding not by pushing quality Latino films but by creating commercial films with telenovela flair like to soon to be released La Mujer de Mi Hermano that features Barbara Mori and Beto Cuevas (yes, from la Ley!).

Turn off your televisions and go see a good movie!
