There's something magnetic about the way the stories in this film unfold here as they're connected but not in the ways we expect. The Follies (Las Locuras) moves with quiet confidence. Go to Full Review Alejandro Alemán El Universal Nov 17

Alex G Nov 25 The movie explores what it means to conform to the western 'normal' from an ultra-femmenine perspective, somehow in defiance of a cinematic scene dominated by gender equality/fuidity. The femmenility is simply astonishing. The dialogues and scenography are Antonioni on steroids, and alla Antonioni are the intellectual attempts to explore the issues without presuming to provide solutions. And the acting..., the acting.
