Hi again Deb. LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE is one of my favorite movies. Although it does have some unnecessary (in my opinion) nudity in it, which I edited out when I showed this to my fourth-year Spanish students over 20 years ago, the movie deals with passion, lost love, and the consequences when we make poor choices. Especially since I lived in Mexico for two years (1989-1991), I can relate quite well to the cultural aspects explored and highly recommend the movie. Although I would love to see the ballet someday, I don't suppose it will come to Ecuador. HA! I think I have a copy, in Spanish, of the book, which I'll have to dig out. As always, thanks for sharing! OX
There's a wealth of stories buried in old photo albums. It's sad to think that the photos we take today will probably not end up in a treasured book, filled with visual memories that can be shared and enjoyed by family and friends. Instead they will have to be tracked down in a 'cloud'.
