El Norte

Photobucket
El Norte
A great film about dreams and the realities
of immigrants who migrate to the U.S.
This came out back in the 80's.
I saw the Criterion Release that came out
few weeks ago.
Beautifully shot and directed.
The director is Gregory Nava
who did My Family and Selena.

This is the same style and theme that you find in
My Family. If you're in the mood for a long
journey drama, this one is it. Be patient with the duration
of the movie, long but worthy.
