Y Tu Mama Tambien

| Tuesday, August 30, 2005

“coming of age” as many say it, is what the movie Y Tu Mama Tambien about. The movie to me is shockingly and uncompromisingly true to life in almost every way; the dialogue, the visual style, the details about Mexico ( though I have never been there, one could tell ), and the sex scenes. I will say that the sex is abundant in this film as well as the discussion of it, mostly because of the fact that the two boys have been raised in a sex-obsessed culture and eagerly take part in that culture. However, in defense of the sex scenes, they are treated with complete honesty, unlike Hollywood sex scenes, and are not glamorized or eroticized whatsoever... don’t be fooled into thinking this film is in any way pornographic. It is quite a good movie to see. Has a few surprises too so watch out!
