      I love this movie.
      Probably because of Thomas, he was indeed a saint, not only the spiritual pillar of Magdalena and CARLOS, but also the spiritual pillar of many people around him.
      When you are old, you can accept, absorb, and tolerate like him, which is something that many people cannot do. His role is quite like the mother in "QUEER AS FOLK".
      Forgot a lot of good places, because I have seen it for a long time.

      Magdalena reminds me of the missionary's daughter in "ken...

      grow up overnight

      At first, I thought it was about the life of Mexican immigrants in the United States, starting with a girl's coming-of-age ceremony to start the family relationship, life status.
      However, I soon noticed the heroine, the girl who bowed her head in the corner, with a round face and a youthful face with a little melancholy.
      This girl is about to have a coming-of-age ceremony. A 15-year-old girl has grown into a woman, but her family has no money to buy her a new dress, and her father,...

      Just experience, no need to be intense

      The state of watching this movie seems to be careless. It was originally a stool supported by four legs. I had to put it on the railing of the bed and only use the back legs to support it. Then I watched and thought, if I let go, if I let go, will it fall? Go down, if you fall down, do you first feel a pain in the back of your head, or you hear the sound of "coaxing" first, if you fall down, if you can't wake up, should you close your eyes forever, or just watch everything, and then there is...

      Love is endless, love is more inclusive

      Adult style, the ritual of how to be a person, maybe you should understand it this way, when you become a real adult, you should know how to love, love is endless, love is unbiased, love is eternal, and love is more inclusive Yes, an eighty-five-year-old man who used an ordinary and simple life to deduce this unchanging truth, took in two troubled adolescents, and faced life calmly.
       Tolerance is great, but the peaceful mentality of the elderly is what we should seek. Tolerance is shelter,...

      The story of an early-pregnant girl, a gay boy, a widower, and three "marginal people" is a great story concept. Although it is a bit dull, life is like...

    • Carlos: [Carlos teaches Gary "Echo Parque" sign] Be careful you don't flash that around Temple Street, though.

      Gary: They're the rival gang, right?

      Carlos: They'd kill you.

      Gary: Wow. You really live in a whole other world, don't you?

      Carlos: Nah... you do.

      Tio Tomas Alvarez: Carlos. I just made some tea, would you like some?

      Carlos: Nah, I'm straight.

    • Magdalena: You're such a loser. Smoking pot in the afternoon, and watching cartoons.

      Carlos: Look who's talking... 14 and pregnant.
