Amar te duele (2002) - Mexico

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0318292/


Plot & Summary
This is the latest movie of the new Mexican film generation. It is a love story between two social classes. While the girl is rich and lives in a bubble, the guy is poor and has a harsh life. As many of the most recent Mexican movies, this movie incorporates a strong sense of humor. This humor may be seen as rudely presented, but it makes you laugh anyway. The story is easy going and you´ll not be bored during it, in fact despite of the cliche, you´ll be wishing for the lovers to get together in the end. The love story is poor. It´s a contemporary version of Romeo and Juliet. However, what makes this movie worthwile is the way it presents you with clasism in Mexico. Both, rich and poor, hate each other. In a part of the movie, the rich guy takes on the poor guy sort of teaching him a lesson. However, later, ther poor guys take revenge in a much stronger way. It also shows how the majority, although being poor, are more powerful that any minority, despite how many money they have.

Quemar las naves [Burn the Bridges] (2007) - Mexico

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1125914/


Plot & Summary
Eugenia (Claudette Maillé) is a former pop singer who is bedridden and dying of cancer. Her 19 year old daughter Helena (Irene Azuela) dreams of traveling the world and learns foreign languages at home and wishes she could be a glamorous pop star like her mother was. Helena cares for her mother with the help their house maid Chaya (Aida Lopez) who also keeps the aging house in working order. Sebastian (Angel Onésimo Nevares) is Helena's teenage brother and Eugenia's son who attends a Catholic high school run by a Monsignor who plays classical music over the loudspeakers thinking it will calm down the boisterous kids. Sebastian's dreams are simple and he merely wants to move to the beach. Helena is smart and pretty but she has no friends, male or female and is totally devoted to her mother's care and is also on the verge of initiating an incestuous relationship with Sebastian. Sebastian however, is falling in love with a boy at school named Jaun (Bernardo Benítez) who is the school roughneck and the son of a single father who owns a little bar. Jaun is the nemesis of the school preppy named Ismael (Ramon Valdes) who comes from such a wealthy home that he has his own chauffeur and bodyguards. Ismael's ping pong obsessed girlfriend Aurora (Jessica Segura) rents a room at Helena and Sebastian's house where Ismael discovers he is also attracted to Sebastian. This film is a drama with some doses of smart comedy sprinkled throughout but it's not a dark comedy. It is a strange story where you are never quite sure where it's going to go and keeps your interest piqued.

Cronos (1993) - Mexico

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104029/


Plot & Summary
This is one of the best horror films of the 90's. It has an excellent plot, a great script, good acting, and masterful direction. The horror scenes were brilliantly executed, the humor well-balanced, the cinematography effective, and the make-up effects were stunning. Don't worry if you hate subtitles, this one will have you gripped until the last frame.

In 1535, an alchemist builds an extraordinary mechanism encapsulated into a small golden device. The invention, designed to convey eternal life to its owner, survives its maker until 1997, when it shows up with an antiques dealer. Fascinated with the strange device, Gris (Luppi) doesn't note that there's more than one person looking for it. The promise of eternal life has become an obsession for old and sick Mr. De la Guardia (Brook). He and his nephew (Perlman) will do anything to get the Chronos Invention.

Directed by Guillermo del Toro, who also directed the Oscar winner "Pan's Labyrinth"

Otilia Rauda (2001) Mexico

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0314474/

Plot & Summary
Acclaimed Mexican filmmaker Dana Rotberg returns to the screen with this hypnotic drama about love and revenge. One of the main themes is Otilia's sexuality. She loves to parade her impressive voluptuous body around like a statue during sex, while the man fumbles around, having trouble getting his pants off. This is no problem since she grunts loudly enough for the both of them even if he still has his pants on. Gabriela Canudas plays Otilia beautifully and the scenes are sexy and erotic.

Set in a small village during the beginning of the 20th century, Otilia (Gabriela Canudas) is both blessed with a body that is the epitome of feminine perfection and cursed by an ugly and massive birthmark that covers her entire left cheek that mars her beautiful face. The juxtaposition between fabulous beauty and disfigurement proves unsettling for the villagers and she grows up friendless, save the family's hired hand Melquíades. Though most figured she would end up as a prostitute, she is married off to Isidro, the local police chief. Cruel and petty, this ogre of a man brutalizes her and eventually infects her with venereal disease, rendering her sterile.

This movie is a female empowerment tale at its best, where sex is a powerful and effective weapon.

The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004) - USA

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0364961/

Plot & Summary 
In 1974 Samuel Joseph Byck attempted to hijack a plane he intended to fly into the White House to kill Richard Nixon - possibly the first time an airliner was to be used as a flying bomb in a terrorist attack. Sam Bicke is a lonely, ineffectual incompetent who feels wronged by his family, friends, employers and the world in general, though his problems are largely of his own making and his petulant refusal to compromise what he sees as his 'values'. Thus he loses his job rather than 'lie' to customers about prices, while at the same time he continuously deceives his friends, and steals from his friend and his brother. Elaborate plans for success founder on equally avoidable issues. As his world falls apart, he fantasizes Richard Nixon (then under the shadow of Watergate and soon to leave office) as his ultimate enemy, and Leonard Bernstein (to whom he dictates endless self-exculpatory audio letters) as his only friend and equal. As a bleak future closes in, Bicke mounts the assassination - with characteristic incompetence.

La nana [The Maid] (2009) - Chile

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1187044/

Summary & Synopsis
Welcome to the life of Raquel (Saavedra), a 41-year-old live-in domestic who is eking out a joyless existence on the fringes of the family she has worked for for many years.
Yet, much like a prostitute, Raquel does not want any other girls on her block. When the mistress of the house, Pilar, worried that Raquel is overworked, offers to hire another maid, Raquel insists further help is not required. When she faints on the stairs, a martyr to severe headaches, Pilar does, indeed, hire another maid. Raquel, not used to asserting herself, retreats into a form of passive aggression that has blackly comic results. She quickly dispatches a very young Peruvian maid and an older, more experienced housekeeper with what becomes her signature form of torture: sending the new maid out to pay the grocer and then locking her out and pretending not to hear.

Catalina Saavedra gives a wonderful performance as the frustrated Raquel, a woman who has devoted all her adult life to caring for this family. This tension is played out in the ways she dotes on the sons and resents and denies the daughter and the way she tries to maintain control of disciplining the children, even from their mother. The film opens with the family offering Raquel a birthday cake and presents, which clearly both please and embarrass her - as an employee, she is not really part of the family. Mariana Loyola as Lucy introduces a much needed breath of modernity into Raquel's life and her influence proves lasting. A warm mix of black comedy and heartfelt family drama.

Nominated for Golden Globe 2010.

El traspatio [Backyard] 2009 - Mexico

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1257579/

Plot & Summary
The problem of the death women is the hydra for any authority of Cd.Juárez, a common place for the intellectuals and artists to denunciate and a complete state of "under siege" for the society who see the problem unsolved since so many time. With that background, this is maybe the first Mexican film to approach this serious matter since the documentary "Señorita Extraviada" back in 2001. And definitely, El Traspatio goes in a more direct direction than Bordertown(2006) with J-Lo and Banderas having persecutions in Hollywood style, or that forced (and failed because it was superficial) mention in Casi Divas (2008). There are many talented people in this one: Reknown writer Sabina Berman takes some stories (of course it's not possible to hold the whole matter in one film) and builds the principal frame. Skilled director Carlos Carrera (from that Alfonso Cuarón/González Iñarritu generation) takes a crew of great actors (so many great performances!) and presents us the open wound. It's a great change for the Carrera style, going now into city stories more than rural ones. Look for the cinematography, is really outstanding. The story goes to the nearly stages (no one can tell the beginning) of the problem with a net of characters and stories that connect each other, transporting the audience to Cd. Juárez and giving many topics to think about. If you are interested in social intelligent cinema, don't miss this one.
