I Married A Dumbass

For my cultural activity, I watched a Spanish-language movie with English subtitles in order to better understand the film. The purpose of this paper is to express my reactions concerning the Puerto Rican film Casi Casi. In summary, Casi Casi is a high school romantic comedy about a boy who runs for Student Council President who is attracted to a girl who also decides to run against him. At the beginning of the film, my initial reaction was that the film was going to be very difficult to view and interpret due to the fact that it was produced in a foreign language that I am not fluent in.

It shows the community does not really welcome immigrants. Also it is very difficult to adopt life in new place, for example washing machine is so complicated for Rosa so she washes all the clothes by hand and lays them on the grass in the garden. Rosa and Enrique attend language school to improve their English. Movie emphasizes the power of the language again and also shows learning English helps their life to get better.

Enrique gets an offer for a better pay job with the chance to become legal resident but he refuses to leave his sister. The house they are staying is a mess when they come but after a while they clean and organize it and one scene Enrique told his sister that “In this country you work hard you can get somewhere” they are proud to earn better life standards. Then suddenly everything changes, Rosa gets sick, immigration was looking for Enrique. Enrique gets promoted at the restaurant and jealous coworker is upset about it and calls immigration police. At the end Rosa dies in the hospital room. The conversation between Rosa and Enrique is heartbreaking. Rosa said “they told us we make lots of money but

The central message of this film is that Mexicans are taken for granted in the United States. The film touches on many major racial issues. At a comedic point in the film, it makes light of the confusion of Hispanics versus Mexicans and assumption that everyone is a Mexican. It highlights the very real poor treatment that some Mexicans face.

I think this is a decent film since it has every one of the qualities I'm searching for in a motion picture. It has diversion, activity and sentiment.

Some of them we can see it in the great story outline, camera work, music, and the good work of the actors. One example that I can say is in the scenes where we see Ana, Carmen, Estella and the other lady’s working in the factory. These scenes in the factory it shows the grate work of the Actors by showing the main purpose of the story, which reflects the struggle of the Latino community in America. Also it shows the problems of the Garcia’s family by trying to maintain the factory in the working position, plus fighting to avoid the bankrupt and able to pay the debts. Another part of the movie that reflect strength are the times where Ana and Carmen have this confrontations moments, based on the fact that Ana wants to go to the University. I can refer that I don’t see any weaknesses in the movie; I really like the story, camera work, the music and the work of the actors, great film. Also I can say that I found some foundations that help me identify if this film has a style of a Chicano film, they are “reflective and Open-Ended”. Referring to the type of ideology that the story has with the connection of the Ana and her mother in how they have this confrontation from the beginning to the end. Another foundation would be “A Chicano Film Language” connecting this particular dialogue between Garcia family and the workers on the factory, and I can add to the type of

When I saw the movie last Saturday, I was so impressed because it is a 3D version and even though it’s a 3D movie, it looks like a real person or actor in the movie. I noticed the special effects, and it was stunning. I definitely love the moral of the story, the musical scoring, the visual effects and the animation. The historical accuracy was good, the costume and the traditions, they even had the right accents. The movie was kinda funny at times, it had good actions, good twists in the story and pretty good acting. The movie was able to rely the message it was meant to rely to the audience, the importance of bravery and heroism, and to sacrifice yourself.

The complex drama, A Separation, is an Iranian film which won the 2011 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language film. The movie tells the tale of a couple who are at odds with each other, trying to do what is best for their daughter. It shares a connection with the film Wadjda, in that the characters have to deal with issues surrounding gender and class in a heavily religious society. The film is another example of how world cinema helps to shatter preconceived notions, and stereotypes.

Both Interpreter of Maladies and White Teeth leave the reader aware of the effects that troubled marriages have on the adults involved, along with the children involved. The marital problems faced by Samad in White Teeth, and by Miranda in Sexy, cause the reader to realize the importance of communication and honesty between couples. If the various couples in this story communicated openly and honestly with each other, the ensuing problems would have been avoidable and would not have resulted in events that spiraled out of control.

These filmmakers allowed their views of Mexican society to influence their films.

Alfonso Cuaron’s 2001 masterpiece, Y Tu Mama Tambien, which focused on a road trip taken throughout the outskirts of Mexico, and surveying many problems facing the country. Many viewers see the film as offering “various perspectives from which to advance a critique of social and political problems that have long plagued Mexico.” The acclaim that these filmmakers would receive for these films were seen by many as, “marking the resurgence of the independent Mexican film industry.” These two films were also the first to “repeat the commercial success of Like Water for Chocolate,” which proved the Mexican cinema could sustain its profitability and success. It is for these reasons that many see this period as being one of the most important and successful in Mexican Cinema history, and saving it from what was seen as an almost certain

Most romantic comedies focus on the beginning of a relationship, which sometimes happens at the end of a past relationship, and ends at the honeymoon stage. Movies rarely show a couple going through a rough patch in their relationship who find a way to work things out and still want to be together at the end. My favorite quote from the film is “a happy marriage is based on faith and if you’ve lost that, you’ve lost everything.” This what the
