Reviews for El Carro
Writer Dago Garcia and director Orjuela are less interested in a comedy of sexual manners than in exploring the ties that connect husbands and wives, parents and children, and brothers and sisters.
El Carro boasts a lovable ensemble cast, with a standout performance by Zaira Valenzuela as 14-year-old Paola. With a pierced nose and black Converse All-Stars, she's the family's - - and the film's - - driving force.
This sociological farce from Colombia tells the story of how a vintage convertible changes the lives of a middle class family to mildly humorous effect.
First-timer Luis Orjuela paint-rollers on soupy layers of humor and emotion while mixing in measured shots of class commentary.
