    Dance of the Forty One

    ★★★★

    An easy to watch film that dramatizes an event from Mexican political culture. A time period piece that demonstrates what it was like to be a closeted prominent gay man back in the early 1900s. I believe there was no antagonist in this film as all parties involved were negatively affected in someway. I really recommend this piece if you have heard of about el baile de los 41. Event if you haven’t, it’s a great way to get interested in the topic.

    A sad but realistic tale that highlights ordinary lives in our world. I wish they would have shown more of Hae Sung’s live but I understand that we were watching it through Na Young’s perspective. The ending is bittersweet for all characters involved, including Arthur, Na Young’s husband. I recommend this film not only for its realism but for its ability to connect with the audience in understanding that not all stories have a “happy” ending. It’s a reflection of everyday life highlight that there is no one way of living.

    Like Del Toro said, animation is not only for children. This movie is everything. Definitely a 10/10🤩
