Lovely film experience
Great New York scenery, and I adore the family scenes. I think the supporting cast is absolutely superb. I expect at least one Oscar on supporting roles, maybe two. Best presentation of Hispanics I have seen in film in a long, long time. We need more of this. Latinos aren't all gangs and tats, they are loving parents who sing, and brothers who dance and families who love. The plot is full of passion and compassion, of betrayal and trust, tears and laughter. Ultimately, after much thought, I have decided it is trying to tell us one thing. Sometimes it is our duty, our calling even, to make it easier for someone else to do the right thing. Whether by an extraordinary act of kindness, or simply by providing the support of friendship, we are called to make smooth the way of the Lord. "Love one another as I have loved you.".
