Sin nombre (2009)

 

 

A Honduran young girl and a Mexican gangster are united in a journey across the American border. 

 

Highly realistic movie, both immigration and gangster drama, convinces as social study and thrills with its suspenseful story.

 

Maltin***: "Vivid, painfully believable drama...Borders on melodrama, with almost Shakespearan overtones yet palpably real every step of the way."

 

 

Jane Eyre (2011)

A mousy governess who softens the heart of her employer soon discovers that he's hiding a terrible secret.

Masterful adaptation of  Charlotte Brontë's classic novel is brilliant in all departments and manages to translate the complex relationship to the screen, highlighted by the perfect performances by Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender.

Maltin***: "Wasikowska is well cast...Exquisite but restrained interpretation rests largely on its talented leading lady's shoulders. Screenwriter Moira Buffini has juggled the chronology of the novel but retained its dramatic power."
