i love gael garcia bernal! i liked 'lucia, lucia', 'maria llena de gracia', and the bernal movies a lot.

i would also reccomend 'habla con ella', and 'mar adentro'. both are sad but touching.

and 'abre los ojos', although it's more of a thiller...

I didn't quite like Abre Los Ojos...thought that it wasn't developed as nicely as it could have been, though the plot was interesting. :)

I liked "The Sea Inside" (sorry, forgot the Spanish title. I know it has "mar" in it. Hehe! :p), really made me think. :)

I see what you mean about Abre Los Ojos... I think I got so absorbed in waiting to see what happened next that I didn't pay as much attention to the other aspects of the movie.

I really liked "Mar Adentro", too. Have you seen "talk to her" (Habla con Ella)? Same kind of idea, people paralyzed by an illness, but v. differently expressed. If you have, I'd be interested in knowing what you thought of it... =)

I've heard of Habla con Ella but I haven't had the chance to watch it yet. :( Someday soon, I hope! Hehe! :)

check out a movie called 'machuca'

Machuca gallianoparfait February 13 2006, 15:03:59 UTC

Yes, yes, yes...superb!!!

I absolutely adore Gael as well. :) I suggest The Motorcycle Diaries. :) That's a good one and despite its highly politicized protagonist, the movie is surprisingly unpolitical.

Is Maria Llena de Gracia the same as "Maria Full of Grace"? Good grief, I'm so bad with the original titles of foreign films. :P Anyway, I haven't finished it yet, but from what I saw, its pretty interesting.
