Amores Perros (25th Anniversary Restoration)
AMORES PERROS ("Love's a Bitch") is Mexican filmmaker Alejandro G. Iñárritu's blisteringly bold, intensely emotional, and ambitious story of lives that collide in a Mexico City car crash. Inventively structured as a triptych of overlapping and intersecting narratives, AMORES PERROS explores the lives of disparate characters who are catapulted into unforeseen dramatic situations instigated by the seemingly inconsequential destiny of a dog named Cofi.
After 25 years, González Iñárritu's legendary feature debut returns to the big screen in a stunning restoration. With Adriana Barraza, Vanessa Bauche, and Gael García Bernal
"If you haven’t fled the theater 20 minutes into the new Mexican film Amores Perros, you’ll be hooked until the end. It pulses with energy and wild style." (LA Weekly)
"Many of the narrative details feel like loving gestures from a storyteller proud of the weight of folklore and of his story. The violence is fast and shocking: a shooting in a restaurant ends with blood dribbling onto a hot griddle, an image that could be a metaphor for the overheated emotions of the film." (New York Times)
"González Iñárritu has modernized Mexican cinema by shooting and editing in a relentlessly urban, fast-paced and hip fashion, packed with sex and violence and raring to go. It's a breath of fresh air in an industry more accustomed to older narrative and pictorial styles." (The Nation)
"One of the most honored and most expertly articulated Mexican films of recent years." (Observer)
