"Le Bonheur" and the Feminism of Varda
Effortlessly beautiful and surprisingly tragic.

Leon Guererro is a legend a hero in that little barrio but when he died, a group of bandits again ruled the place abusing the women and getting their harvest. People wrapped in fear could not think of anything but pray that another Leon Guerrero would come in and save them. Manuel, a meek son of a drunkard was chosen to play the role of the next Leon Guerrero. His appearance adds to and strengthens the anger of Gancho, the leader of the bandits. Harder to believe but in the end, everybody has to. It is not impossible for anyone to be a Hero.

Ian and Barley embark on a quest to find a magical gem to restore their father back to life.
Overall, “Dark Fate” is a run-of-the-mill flick. Together, Reyes and Davis have excellent chemistry, but their characters’ story is nothing new, lacking surprise and deep emotion. During the middle points, the film drags considerably, and when the action hits, it feels consistently tight, eliminating the rhythm and fluidity of conflicts.
Gay representation is out there, but to portray a character who's gay as a big, happy brute is a rare treat.
