Synopsis
Patricia Reyes Spindola, Rafael Inclan, Luis Felipe Tovar, Carlos Chavez and Leticia Valenzuela co-star in Arturo Ripstein’s pitch-black ensemble comedy, which takes its title from a popular Mexican song. When two ranchers conspire to murder a mutual friend, more than one woman comes to the local police station to claim the body, provoking an avalanche of hurt feelings, confusion and, ultimately, a revelation for one lucky widow.
Director
Arturo Ripstein
Arturo Ripstein y Rosen (born December 13, 1943 in Mexico City) is a Mexican film director who got his break into movies working as an uncredited assistant director for Luis Buñuel. In 1965, he directed his first feature, Tiempo de Morir. Written by Carlos Fuentes and Gabriel García Márquez, in which he began a tradition of making independent films written by high-profile Latin-American authors.
Many of his films are shot in tawdry interiors, with bleak brown color schemes, and seedy pathetic characters who manage to achieve a hint of pathos and dignity.Wall
