Mine is, "La Estrategia del Caracol" (circa, 1993)



Perhaps b/c it was the first Col movie I saw that I liked.

Man with hole in pocket feel cocky all day.

1.) Soñar No Cuesta Nada - Great Movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4X4ocwoDrI

2.) La Vendedora De Rosas - I don't know why this film gets bad press on this site, A great deal of authenticity. MT would love it.

3.) Maria Eres Llena De Gracia - made by a guy from Brooklyn and shot in Ecuador but "Colombian" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GgBnY3_GII

La Virgin de los Sicarios - great scenery and slang - hate the actual movie though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps_W58FNqpo&NR=1

Rosario Tijeras - stupid movie but some funny shit and Flora Martínez is awesome to watch. Colombiche will be here soon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsvTG04jg5c

You guys need to check "El Carro" and "Mi Abuelo, Mi Papá y Yo". They're pretty good and funny. "Soñar no Cuesta Nada" had a good beginning but it got so messy halfway through that it didn't do it for me. I liked the ending though, I didn't expect it.

Paraiso travel is awsome - sonar no cuesta nada was great as was Maria lleno de greacio. El Rey I also enjoyed.

I hated Colombian Dream.

1 Paraiso travel
2 La estrategia del caracol (I saw it more than 10 years ago, and I always thought it was a cuban movie).
