Half Brothers

Got the opportunity to watch the preview screening and it was a roller coaster ride! One moment I'd be laughing and the next tearing up. I loved the relationships were portrayed in this film and the locations that the film was shot in were gorgeous. [spoiler] I have to say that the best part for me personally was the very rare portrayal of America through the distrustful eyes of a foreigner who vehemently does not want to be there. The film also successfully pointed out the many assumptions and stereotypical perspectives that the average American has of Mexicans in a comical but thought-provoking way. Renato's journey was as much about accepting the role America had in his life (represented physically by his half-brother, Asher) as it was about getting closure with his father. [/spoiler] I had a fun time watching this film and would definitely was it together with my family when it releases.
