Title: This movie is "erotic and delectable"?
Review: The story opens on a Mexican rancho in 1910, as Tita is being born. Her harsh mother proclaims that the child will remain at home all her life and never marry, and Tita is relegated to the kitchen. When she grows up, Tita falls in love with handsome Pedro; he cannot marry her so he marries her sister just to be close to his beloved, who is now the family cook.I know this was a favorite of the critics when it came out, so I can only assume that something was lost in the translation for me, because I don't see the appeal or the greatness of this movie at all. To me, the actors seemed bland and amateurish, the scenes were choppy and poorly photographed, and story couldn't decide if it was a real love story or a magical fantasy. The meaning of the title was never explained and the last scene was just bizarre.I really expected to like this movie, but found it a low-budget, art house-wannabe. In Spanish with English subtitles.
