1001 movies to see before you die. This

1001 movies to see before you die. This was a powerful movie showing different aspects of Cuba through three different women's point of view. I wondered how it was allowed to be produced during communism. Despite its unusual direction and photography, I don't plan on seeing it again. It was on Youtube.

A portrait of change in Cuba told with

A portrait of change in Cuba told with a focus on key geopolitical moments in the prior century and incorporating a feminine perspective to provide a metric to the shifting social tides, Lucia admittedly starts out somewhat slow, featuring a melodramatic romance that is relatively conventional both in its sensibilities and composition. However, it is not only revealed as a deliberate step taken by Solás to contrast with the more avant-garde shooting style employed later on for more contemporary settings, but also is concluded in its own segment by a surprisingly stark, sweeping, and disturbing battle scene that few could potentially match for grueling intimacy. At times the sheer size of the film makes some of the supporting performances seem a bit lackluster, and the overt nature of the gender politics seem to take over a bit too prominently at times (particularly the literal imprisonment of Legrá's final iteration of Lucía by a controlling, cigar-gnashing husband), but overall Lucía documents social change using characters with personality rather than premade templates of virtue, and isn't shy about pointing out practical corruption in a series of revolutionary movements built on idealism, and the potential for long-term change. (3.5/5)
