Immigration has been always an issue for Mexican's of low and middle class. Real Women Have Curves is a comedy film that was published in 2002 directed by Patricia Cardoso, produced by George LaVoo and written by Josefina Lopez. In addition, this film got seven awards from different organizations. Ana Garcia as America Ferrera is the protagonist of the film. Lupe Ontiveros as Carmen is Ana's mother who plays a major role in Ana's social life. Estela as Ingrid Oliu who is Ana's sister takes part in Ana's career life. Ana's high school teacher Mr. Guzman as George Lopez also participates strongly in Ana's academic life. Finally, Ana's father Raul Garcia as Jorge Cervera Jr does not cooperate effectively like Carmen in Ana's life.
Ana lived in a poor Mexican American family in Los Angeles. Therefore, this encouraged Ana to provide more efforts in her academic career. Nevertheless, Ana is a smart senior Beverly Hills high school student, which is considered as one of the best high schools in California. Ana's efforts made her a good student at high school. However, Ana was around to graduate and her family decided to let her work with her sister Estela at her dress factory. This depressed Ana a lot since she had excellent grades in high school. Yet, Ana worked at her sister factory while she was trying to convince her family to let her complete her academic career. Nevertheless, Ana get supported by her teacher in high school Mr. Guzman who was impressed from Ana due to her academic performance.
Acting in a flexible way was one obvious aspect in Real Women Have Curves film. The actors were seeking a film that represents the Latin impact on this group of people who live in the United States. Thus, Ana's family was outgoing people who are seeking joy through their daily activities. A clear illustration for that is when the actors show how they act normally in their social life and in their jobs. For instance, when Estela, Ana and the other women who works in the factory start dancing wearing bikinis and work at the same time. Another essential aspect of the film is playing the music with the scenes in different languages depending on the speaking language. The director Patricia Cardoso was succeeding in placing every scene with the appropriate music. Moreover, choosing Spanish music provides a Latin face of the film. A clear image for the previous point is when Ana's family suddenly starts speaking by Spanish depending on the events that are happening. For example, Carmen was famous by changing her language in an unexpected way, which makes the director play a Spanish kind of music when she is talking.
In conclusion, Real Women Have Curves is one of the best movies that I have ever seen since I moved to the United States. This is because the film was Comedy in a different way in terms of the reality and the way of acting. As a result, I would give it 4.5 out of five that is because all of the film staff were not famous before this movies.
