Last night's movie: amores perros

amores perros is a 2000 Mexican film directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu. With Emilio Echevarría, Gael García Bernal, Goya Toledo. This is a movie about coincidences (of the unfortunate variety) and the intersections of strangers' lives.

The viewing experience in 5.1 Dolby on widescreen TV is gutsy: real and raw, an anthology film containing three distinct stories which are connected by a car crash.

Uncontrollable animal force + life-lessons = one powerful motion picture. It represents the dark side of coincidences, and as such could be disturbing to some viewers. I borrowed the copy I watched on DVD from the Albany Public Library: Netflix has it in case your library does not. ...::MoRe::..
