Favorite Road Film
Unfortunately I have just recently begun my journey into films that stand out from your average Hollywood love story or bad ass Bruce Willis adventures however, I recently watched a good Road film that was in Spanish but I can no longer remember the name. Anyways, the two main characters were women who up and left everything they had and were complete opposites but were both struggling to make ends meet to survive and happen to run into each other on the road along the way. The one women lived as a single mother with two kids, a drug dealer boyfriend, and a jealous ex-husband. She finally got fed up and left juarez Mexico after women at her work (in the Maquilladores)started disappearing. The other woman had a great college education and was incredibly witty and self reliant which undoubtedly created problems with several men who had control and self esteem issues. This movie was great because it questioned and poked fun at societal norms.
