You rarely see such an intimate tale painted on such a large canvas. In telling a story based on his own youth, filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón has made an epic movie about the women in his life. If that sounds a bit unusual, once you see the movie, it all makes sense. This is a flick that’s a tribute to these women, told in a specific yet universal way. Ever since the fall film festival circuit began, it has been getting almost exclusively raves. I’m here to continue that goos word of mouth. This is one of the best foreign works of the year, and just quality cinema in general.

The film is a period piece drama, set in the early 1970’s.
