Mexico is not as good as the United States, but you are not an American, and you still enter it as hard as you can, and you have to suffer the consequences.

After reading it, I don't feel much. The "American Dream" is too far away from me. My dream is to have some money, time to watch movies, and another person. Mexico is not as good as the United States, but you are not an American, and you still enter it desperately, you have to suffer the consequences, and you want others to be pitiful, and pitiful is hateful. At the end, when the Mexican father who was deported back to the United States was preparing to dive back to the United States, he took the lead in the United States and said, "let's go home." Obviously, he pleased the Americans, the Oscar judges, and the audience. The hero Demian Bichir always gives me a bit of a quiet Robert De Niro vibe in the film.

Illegal immigration + estrangement between father and son + a stolen car, inevitably reminiscent of the Italian neorealist film "Ladri di biciclette", but unfortunately the film's sense of reality is weakened by problems such as improper soundtrack. Demián Bichir's role is similar to Javier Bardem in "Biutiful" the year before, but his performance in the Oscar front line may be more like Robert Duvall in "Get Low", becoming a legacy.
