Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Saw this film in New York. The acting, cinematography, and timing are absolutely beautiful, as well as absorbing. I was stunned when I saw the film. This quality is rarely seen anymore. There was excellent original music, which enhanced the mood of the film, subtly supporting the acting. The setting was stunning--apparently the Central Coast of California. The message was also one that more Americans should hear--that we are all alike and have the same relationships (even if you are a Mexican laborer). The acting was real; the relationship between the father and son was totally believable. We need more films like this--with originality in topic and presentation. This film is a "must see."
