During my Monday 9~10th period Spanish lecture, the professor showed the class (consisting of 5 people with 1 absent) a bloody enthralling Mexican movie, called Como Agua Para Chocolate.

Theme: Good food and horny people

Plot: Tita is the youngest daughter at a Mexican ranch who cannot get married because of her family tradition that demands her to take care of her mom until she dies. This guy called Pedro is madly in love so he marries her sister, Rosaura whose kid with Pedro dies due to her bad cooking. Tita is a magical cook by the ways. She goes crazy later but is cured by chicken broth and her doctor proposes to her and in the end Pedro and Tita dies after making love.

What I like: The camera work that appropriately accentuated the Tita-made cuisines is very applaudable. I also like how the Mommy appears as a ghost and and is still an ass. And my favorite part is how Rosaura dies of digestive problems and lets out a wanting fart before dying.

Etcetera: Not only is the depiction of the emotions very passionate but also harbors the fluctuating nature of humans, dictated by our basic instincts. In other words, I couldn't get what the effing bullcrap the story is about.
