El hombre que cuida

Although a small film (almost the entire movie takes place on an ocean front property and house), I thought it was pretty good. Although the acting was sketchy at times, the lead character, who played the caretaker of the house, and the actor who played the son of the home's owner, seemed to hold the film together. Various social topics are woven into the plot nicely, including love, marriage, social classes, work, and loyalty. There were several points during the movie where I thought that the plot would fall into predictable patterns, but then there would be a twist, sending the film toward a different direction. Overall the film was ok, and is one of the better ones I have seen from the Dominican Republic.
