What is wrong, people?,
This review is from: El Beso del Sueno (DVD)
El Beso del Sueno
I thought the acting persuasive - enough so that the ending caught me very much off guard. Juan Diego is very good looking - for those who are interested in older, more complicated males, and Maribel Verdu does a first rate job of acting and shows LOTS of skin - lots and lots and lots of it, but not gratuitously. Good movie. You should remember Verdu from "Belle Epoque" and "Y tu mama tambien" which involved different roles - film noir, romantic comedy, tragedy. And as film noir this is the blackest I've seen since "Chinatown"

Deja vu,
This review is from: El Beso del Sueno (DVD)
While watching this movie I was struck by a feeling of deja vu. The movie felt very familar only this time different actors and language were involved. The story was very predictable but the credible performances of the lead actors made it tolerable; both Verdu and Mr. Diego were engaging in their assigned roles. This movie certainly won't inspire you to any great action but it is something you can watch if you have spare time.

This review is from: El Beso del Sueno (DVD)
As soon as one realizes this movie is shot on videotape and not film one's heart sinks. Like a bad telenovelo, scenes go on and on and all one wants to do is yell "Cut" to the director. The story is familiar: a prostitute who works johns on a train, drugs them and steals their money, one night hits the jackpot -- two suitcases crammed with money being transported by a courier out of Spain. Tracked down by an agent hired by a crooked banker, a relationship evolves between the hooker and the agent, who double crosses her, then backtracks -- only to be double crossed in return. A tired story that appears to have been lifted from countless other, better written scripts, this flick has the look and feel of an el-cheapo Mexican outing. Good Spanish actors wasted in a movie that looks like a hastily thrown together production.
