Noviembre

I am interested in finding out where (online preferably. that ships internatioanlly as I am based in Manila, Philippines) I can purchase the DVD of this movie (Noviembre by Achero Manas). I have emailed the producers/distributors in Spaon and I haven't received any replies. Help! I am not particular whether the DVD has English subtitles or not (as I speak and understand Spanish). I would like to have a Spanish subtitled option though, as I plan to study the dialog of the movie. Any comments/suggestions or just pointers would greatly help. I donot believe in nor do I practice the downloading of movies via the net, so please, only legitimate suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

they wanted to change the world.did they? by this film i clearly understand that believing something or to have a hope is more vital than to accomplish it.to believe is the first and last thing in any of the story.since everyone exists in this story no matter who is actor who is watching.maybe meaning of the life is to understand that believing and challenging for any idea or a belief.death is the only perfect stage for Alfredo and actually for all of us. And no matter when it comes.Alfroda i saw,you change the world.sleep in peace. yes,finally all of us will die?will we? i believe in you i believe in we i believe in la ilahe illallah.

First of all I am an actress. All over the world, it is so hard to live out of arts ( if you are not so famous). In today's world, you can be famous if you are on magazines. in old times when there were no television and stuff, to become famous, you had to be very successful on your job. if you were making shoes, and doing it so good, you were getting famous all over the world without media, TV and internet. this means being famous was depending on being the best on your field.

this movie shows the problems of all art work and artists, talking on theatre actors. on IMDb, the movies that includes guns, serial killers gets 8,9 grade but such an important movie is 7,4. this is what the movie tells about actually.

I adored this movie.I saw it in Annecy,France in April 2004.It was a Spanish movie festival.Of course,i had already taken 6 or 7 years of Spanish at the time so I had a pretty broad comprehension of what the movie was about and what the actors were saying...We are now in 2006 and I still to this day have not seen a better movie than this one. "Noviembre" has caused many things to change in my brain and my way of thinking about art. Art should be something that people express freely and in any kind of form or way they want.I thought the scenes in the streets, when they were acting were incredible. The end of the movie is very rough and harsh. If you ever see it,be prepared to cry in the end or at least be very touched by the meaning of it. If you have not lived in European countries it is more difficult to understand it. In fact,all the bad comments that I have read about this movie were made by non Hispanic and/or non European people.So please all of you,just open your mind to new and different things.

Make sure that you think twice about the true meaning of this movie before you say plenty of bad things about it.To me, everything was great,realistic for the way Spain was at the time and entertaining.

This is one of the most surprising films I have ever seen and the acting is just amazing.

The story of the idealistic Spanish street theater group "November" is really touching and a mixture of fiction and documentary.The scenes of street theater in Madrid are wonderful, the actors turn metros and shopping streets into a playground for their acts and I enjoyed the idea of interaction of with the audience.

Furthermore, the message of the film will make you think about the meaning of art: a business, a hobby, a life style... and about the extremely individualistic and materialistic society that the film reflects. Only by watching it you will understand that art is a way of changing this world and that youth is not passive.

I strongly recommend "November" because is that kind of films that helps you to understand yourself and the world. And I like to finish with the last sentence of the film said by one of the actresses: "We wanted to change the world, we failed miserably. Now I just try to not let the world change me"
