Vince Q. @Vincedeq Nov 3 A Mexican ghost story (adapted from a novel of the same name by gabriel garcia marquez, c. 1950), about the curse of power, lost souls and eternal damnation set alongside the search for redemption. The cinematography is atmospheric and haunting - and the story remained slightly cloaked in the anonymity of idiomatic cultural allegory. I recommend a watch because of the indelible cultural imagery.

The book that inspired Cien Años de Soledad. While no movie version could fully capture the feeling of *perspective-shifting vertigo* that reading the book gives you (think As I Lay Dying, but on steroids), it’s as close as you can get to reading the book, without reading it.

Based on hit novel by Mexican writer Juan Rulfo. The story is all over the place crime line wise and is really weird. The ending was really bad 🍿🍿/5 on Netflix See more Alejandra O Jan 14 Vey pretentious, couldnt finish it. See more Josiel P Dec 14 Rodrigo Prieto traer a la vida el surrealismo de Comala con un literalismo inesperado, con pocas pero no sutiles libertades creativas lleva la magia de Rulfo mas allá de lo escrito haciendo de esta obra una narrativa propia, algunas actuaciones merecen nuestros aplausos mientras que otras simplemente cumplen con sus diálogos sin darlos la verdadera esencia de los personajes.
