Title: SANTIAGO CARLOS OVES, OPUS 5
Product review: ***1/2 2004. Written and directed by Argentine director Santiago Carlos Oves. Jaime has just lost his job. Now his wife wants him to tell his mother to leave the apartment she lives in so that they can sell it. So Jaime will spend more and more time with his mother, talking about her, about the past and about her new boy-friend who's 69 years old. I liked a lot this bittersweet comedy coming from Argentina. The performance of veteran actress China Zorrilla and EduardoSon of the BrideBlanco is gorgeous. As the topic of the film is universal, you'll surely appreciate two or three well-observed truths about our modern societies. Recommended.
