RESEÑA DE LA PELICULA PARAISO TRAVEL

Posted by Your Entertainment Ticket.com Labels: , , ,

RESEÑA DE LA PELICULA PARAISO TRAVEL 

Presentada en el Festival Internacional de Cine de Fort Lauderdale del 15 de Octubre al 11 de Noviembre de 2008. Paraíso Travel, basada en el exitoso libro del mismo nombre escrito por Jorge Franco, quien también escribió el guión junto con Juan Rendón, ha tenido un éxito total en este Festival que ya conocemos como FLIFF.  

Muy buena dirección de parte de Simon Brand, quien logra visualizar las escenas de una manera conmovedora. Relata la historia de Marlon Cruz, (Aldemar Correa) un muchacho de Medellín, quien es seducido por Reina, (Angelica Blandon) quien tiene la fiebre del sueño americano. Marlon, no muy convencido, pero débil de carácter, se deja llevar por Reina, una mujer manipuladora, con una meta fija y no deja que nada se atraviese en su camino. Inclusive Marlon renuncia a todo lo que tiene valor para el, para irse a Nueva York, cruzando por México en un viaje muy arriesgado. 

Al llegar a Nueva York sin dinero y nada de lo que les habían prometido, el sueño americano se convierte en pesadilla cuando la pareja se separa accidentalmente, y esta terrible y desconocida ciudad de hierro se traga a Marlon, quien a punto de morir de hambre y de frío, es rescatado por compatriotas generosos. Marlon, completamente iluso y vulnerable se propone encontrar a Reina, pase lo que pase.  

Al final, Marlon ha sido transformado por las duras lecciones de la vida de un inmigrante ilegal. Otros personajes en esta historia revelan esta terrible verdad: Raquel (Margarita Rosa de Francisco), y Milagros (Ana de la Reguera). Todas las actuaciones son fenomenales. 

Le recomiendo que vaya a ver esta película. 

5 de 5 estrellas
