If you loved Loca, try Cartas a Iris
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Martin Ritt, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Loca, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Cartas a Iris is
The film follows an illiterate cafeteria cook who sets his sights on a newly widowed woman. Their growing bond leads her to uncover his secret after he's fired. She then attempts to teach him reading by candlelight, with predictably messy results.
