Mariposas Verdes

Very bad teacher father and friends. if Daniel more brave this will not happen. This story teach everyone should kill people . It more useful to collect name and surname teachers and bad friends to annouce that this will not happen again.

This movie was extremely difficult for me to watch. It hits way too close to home. I related to a lot of stuff within this movie. I am a sexual abuse and suicide survivor. I was abused by a family member as a child. I am a gay man who grew up in a very religious Latino household. As you can imagine none of this was easy. It's bad enough that you're Latino and gay, which was really frowned upon in the Latin community for ages. But imagine being Latino and gay in a religious house.

The movie shares a love story between two friends who go to the same school and they end up becoming lovers. One of the girls who happens to have a crush on one of the boys ends up catching them in the bathroom kissing, so she takes a picture and shows it to the principal and everybody in the class.

The movie has a very beautiful love story, which turns into a very sad story by the end. I highly recommend this movie. It's unfortunate that these two boys who loved each other very much couldn't stay together. It's very unfortunate everything that happened between them being exposed and one of the boys parents decided to press charges against the other boy for sexual harassment that never happened.

The principal, and also the girl who took the photo of the two boys really made me upset and mad throughout the movie because it just seems like they were trying to cause trouble every chance they could.

If you're looking for a good LGBT movie to watch this one is for you, but I must warn you. It may be very difficult for you to watch. The ending is very sad. I was literally crying throughout the movie. So if you need it, grab your box of tissues cause you just might need it.

This movie tells the story of a teenager who struggles to find his own identity in this world, but must confront a society incapable of understanding differences, gender variations or our own choices, whatever they are. Well crafted, this movie tells the story of bullying from the perspective of a teenager, but also proves that the position of parents and teachers are crucial if we desire to prevent this type of behavior. Mariposas Verdes is meant to be a movie that causes controversy and stays in the mind of the viewer, just as much as the book Mariposas Verdes.

Against large unrealism, I like it very much. The motif - the themes explored, indeed, not so smart but decent with some indulgence of viewer. I like it for the posters with Albert Einstein , Beatles and Julio Cortazar ( loving Rayuela ).

Indeed, strong temptation to be critic about Mariposas Verdes, including for politic side. But the fist of themes, from buying, teachers addicted by rules and using them for revenge, homosexual romance and manipulation of homophob father by principal, human rights, divorced parent interested by material prosperity of child, rape and blackmail of overweight student by her mate, suicid and the fresh reactions of teens , like the final are motives to see it not so sever and appreciated the reasonable acting, the generous intentions of director.

There needs to be some academic research done on the desire of filmmakers to make depressing movies about gay kids. Make no mistake - the two characters who are at the center of the story have almost no problem with their sexuality and love for each other. It's the society that stands in their way, with predictable consequences. As a viewer, aren't I familiar with these consequences already? Must we be constantly be reminded how bad things are out there, how slowly things change? Another item to make clear - there are happy gays in this world. Everyone, everywhere would benefit from seeing those stories, not in an attempt to whitewash the difficulties, but as an act of restorative justice. These beautiful guys deserve better in this film than to be squashed under the boot of an uncaring world. As an aside, it could have been a good television series as well.
