Cine Loteria

Great story. It spoke to many of the superstitions that I had as a kid, and many that I still have. The signs that surround us on a daily basis that are good or bad omens, and can have profound effects on our day or the rest of the year, for that matter. I love how the movie juxtaposes this superstitious world, the magical world of cinema with the kitchen-sink reality of the real world. I also love the notion that an artist sometimes has to go through deep suffering to finally attain clarity of their art... however, sometimes at the cost of a loved one. The film is fun, witty, artsy, romantic, sweet, and giddy. Yet, turns sad and tragically hopeless.. but then hopeful. I don't want to give anything away, no spoilers here! So, just watch it.. you'll be glad you did!
