Thank you very much, John, for your very useful comments.

--I like Arturo Ripstein very much. These are his films that I saw in my preferential order:

1.DIVINE (1998)

2.THE PLACE WITHOUT LIMITS (1978)

3.SUCH IS LIFE (2000)

4.NO ONE WRITES TO THE COLONEL (1999)

5.THE RUINATION OF MEN (2000)


--I haven’t seen LOLA (1989) and SKY BLUE (1988), but I’m interested in Maria Novaro. I have seen only two of her films: DANZON (1991, A+/A) and THE GARDEN OF EDEN (1994, B+)

--I have seen only two films by Jaime Humberto Hermosillo: DONA HERLINDA AND HER SON (1985, A) and WRITTEN ON THE BODY OF THE NIGHT (2001, A-/B+).

--I haven’t seen any films by Paul Leduc, but I want to see DOLLAR MAMBO (1993) very much.
