  • Starring: Diana García, Fernando Becerril, Miriana Moro
  • Summary: Two interlaced stories unfold over the course of the same long, hot day in a resort town of Acapulco. The first involves Fernanda, who is forced to deal with the sudden emergence of her ex-lover. Her current boyfriend must compete with the intense sexual tension that Fernanda and her ex-love share. The second story concerns Jamie, an office worker with hidden indiscretions, attempting suicide in a beachfront hotel until a precocious and equally dishonest teenage girl disrupts his plans.

    "Amores Perros" is a yappy whelp compared to this striking degrees-of-separation drama by Mexican writer-director Gerardo Naranjo.

    You want to hate his characters? Go ahead. You want to feel sympathy for them? That's OK too. In either case, you'll be shaken by Drama/Mex.
