Nothing Like the Holidays (2008)

Nothing Like the Holidays: Directed by Alfredo Rodriguez de Villa. With Alfred Molina, Elizabeth Peña, Freddy Rodríguez, Luis Guzmán. A Puerto Rican family living in the area of Humboldt Park in west Chicago face what may be their last Christmas together.

“I appreciated the u0026#39;Latinou0026#39; flair, different for the holidays. The story line is touching and youu0026#39;ll know why at the end. This movie gave me a decent feel of what I might expect if I wanted to some day join a Puerto Rican family for the rest of my u0026#39;Gringou0026#39; life. I thought being with Puerto Rican lady would be kind of neat, so I watched the movie and now I understand more how it may be for me with that family. Debra Messing plays the u0026#39;Gringou0026#39;, which would be me in this case as I join my future family in all its splendor and mysteries. I must say, I look forward to it…well, a girl can dream anyway!”
