Movie Reviews of Guadalupe

Movie Review: Guadalupe: A Great Movie On Many Levels
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched this movie twice as I was concerned I didn't catch all the nuances. I need to watch it again as there is so much packed into this wonderful story. Four stories at once are told simultaneously as they weave in and out of the original saga of the 1531 miracle of the virgin maiden appearing to Juan Diego. The man who plays Juan Diego is an excellent actor and a dopleganger for Juanito. Mary herself if played by a sweet spirited and charming young girl as we would expect of Mother Mary. Remarkably both Juan Diego and Maria speak Nahuatl as they should and this is very perceptive of the movie producers to include this element.

The movie also ties in all the remarkable, miraculous, and scientific elements into the story line. The miniature portraits of the people in the room as seen during the manifestation of the apparition are there in her eyes, the preservation of the tilma for nearly 500 years, the production of an image on an agave cloth that is more akin to a photograph and uses no pigment, and on and on.

I am an anthropologist/archaeologist that has been studying the Tilma extensively and this film is startingly accurate. It also provides an understanding to those who are not Mexican of how the Mexican culture developed and what role Guadalupe plays in this ethnogenesis.

It also makes a wonderful statement regarding the role of faith and family. All in all a wonderful cinema. Good job. You'll enjoy it.
