AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
gato A magnificent look at Cuba from an unique point of view. The photography is superb, the direction as well. Plus, this woman's beauty is as powerful as her story. A must for all movie lovers interested in refreshing their senses.
Spanky-2 This documentary provides an interesting insight into the lives of two very different young women. One (Yuliet) gives us a glimpse of the harsh reality of the life of a young prostitute growing up in Havana Cuba. The other (Fabiola) is an aspiring model on location while shooting a video. While very different, the two share many similarities in that both are young, beautiful, and have had difficult (at best) relationships with their fathers and men in general. These difficulties combined with the dysfunctional nature of their family lives (particularly Yuliet) results in a documentary that delves into the neurosis, depression , and isolation that results from these problems. The movie makes a case for the statement: All men are self-centered, selfish, uncaring jackasses.
Moro This is one of those films that makes you feel that the battle of creativity is not lost, and that Hollywood will not reign if there are filmmakers as Carlos Marcovich. This film is unique, is original, is fresh, is sincere.
MovieRav For anyone who has even a passing interest in comely young Latin women, check this movie out. This doc features two of them, both reasonably intelligent and interesting, discussing their lives and doing an admirable job of appearing natural in front of the camera. Fabiola is shown to be a successful model from Michoacan, while Juliette is a wild young street urchin in Havana, partying and trying to stay sane despite what appears to be a very difficult life. Oh, and if you had any doubts, this movie will settle the issue for you: All guys are pigs, evidently.
