Toto's cousin Azucena has come into town to stay with his family and recover from an unhappy love affair. This couldn't suit Toto better, since he's just reaching adolescence, and he can't help noticing that she's a very attractive girl. She seems friendly to him, too. Eventually they have a brief sexual liaison (his first) in this male coming-of-age story which is, oddly enough, directed by a woman. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

In this comedy that's heavy with one-liners, the work ethic takes a drubbing and family values are touted as the true source of happiness, even for crooks. "El Multiple" (Rafael Inclan) is a devoted father and husband who loads up on stolen goods, smuggles his family and the loot into the United States, and then strikes it rich by selling his merchandise for high prices. In contrast to "El Multiple," Don Proculo (Pedro Weber) works hard to get a better life for himself by pouring his energy into his antique shop. One day while he's away on vacation, someone breaks into his store and steals everything of value. Don Proculo is forced out of business and "El Multiple" comes back, looking for a place to start a small family restaurant. For the characters in this film, family means more than a business, or the goods which so readily (and illegally) change hands. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

"Lalo el Mimo" or Eduardo de la Peña stars in this unusual comedy as a lottery ticket winner. Instead of investing in stocks or huge houses, Rafael Lara (the character el Mimo plays) has set up four of his friends in auto repair businesses. In addition to that, though, he has a fondness for the ladies, and can't seem to stop marrying them. Before long, he has four wives and four separate (and very elegant) homes for them. Eventually the authorities get wind of these illegal goings on (one wife per customer, please) and put him in jail. However, he has fulfilled the secret dreams of many of those who put him in jail, and he is much admired by them. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

1982  
 
Adeptly manipulating images and scenes, director Claudio Isaac has fashioned an existential story about the aspirations of Pablo Rueda (Humberto Zurita), born on the day that Pedro Infante died. (Infante was a popular, well-loved Mexican singer and actor who died in a 1957 plane crash.) Rueda's birth on that day, as a mythical star went out, was symbolic in itself but in that same year, the angel of the Independence Monument also fell down during an earthquake. As Rueda reaches adulthood, he is dedicated to drawing and writing and in his relationships with friends, relatives, lovers, and editors, the full scope of his vision of the world and himself is revealed. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
