Like Water for Chocolate

Mexico 1993, 105 minutes
Dir. Alfonso Arau
In Spanish with English subtitles
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama / Romance

Feat. Marco Leonardi, Lumi Cavazos, Regina Torne

Aroview: Certifiable foreign-language block-buster blends the irresisistible ingrediants of primal female desire with old-fashioned home-cookin'. Bittersweet, humourous, and abundantly sensual, this'll get your nostrils flaring for a least one reason.

4 stars (Very Good) Set mostly in the Mexican desert, in an elegant hacienda where a nutty upper-class family play out their madness against the backdrops of revolution and illicit love. It has everything - sex, hatred, family spats, politics. Delicious & good enough to eat. ~GenXGirl

2 stars (Good Try) It was okay but I had my fill - it just needed to be about more than food and babies. ~Tubbs
