Marco L @decatur555 Oct 22, 2026 A very enjoyable Spanish coming-of-age crime story that looks at quinqui cinema with affection rather than trying to copy its rawness. What works best is the feeling of crossing a border: Nacho, shy and sheltered, discovers Zarco, Tere, the gang, the street, the robberies, the music and the seduction of a freer, more dangerous life. The seventies atmosphere is one of the film’s great pleasures: cars, clothes, bars, streets and songs give the story rhythm, nostalgia and youthful energy. Marcos Ruiz, Chechu Salgado and especially Begoña Vargas have real chemistry, turning crime into a mix of desire, class tension and emotional discovery. It may soften the harsh social reality and sometimes prefers myth, beauty and memory to dirt and brutality. But that romantic stylization works. Entertaining, colorful, musical and melancholic, it turns a summer of robberies, songs and first wounds into a forbidden garden.

More real than many movies. Not since City of God, or Y tu Mama Tambien, have I been this affected. We Americans should aspire to bring real romance, grit and relationships to the screen. Films such as Outlaws could be more than we can bear. See more Nov 23, 2021 You know it will all crash but it is an interesting ride. The actress who plays Tere steals the movie.
