One of the best movies in my life
7 September 2004
I have seen the movie at the Montreal Film Festival. I am not Argentine and don't speak Spanish. It is, however, one of the ten best movies I have seen in my life. Argentines can rest assured that this will be as powerful abroad as it seems to be down there. Rarely have I seen an audience enjoy a movie so much, the

laughter, the emotion, the high sense of humanity. It is certainly one of the most, if not the most, popular movie in the Festival. Intelligent, timely, human,

incredibly witty, deeply emotional. A movie that makes you happy to belong to the human race.

Please, wherever you are in the world, if this movie shows up in your local

festival, DON'T MISS IT!!! Anybody can make movies about war and misery and

poverty, but a movie that creates so much warmth and drama from small every

day situations is a gem. It had me crying and laughing and crying and laughing again. The applause at the Festival was thunderous, and so were the reviews.

I have not seen "Son Of The Bride" which was a big hit here. I do not want to miss it now. It is refreshing to see that somebody gives us the pleasure to go back to the movies to learn and enjoy life. It's been five days since I've seen it, and I still can't shake it off my mind. I find myself laughing and tearing up in the oddest situations.

One of the best movies I've seen in my life.
