User Comments: Date: 22 September 2003 Summary: Sayles in da "casa" ! One of the year's best films.
CASA DE LOS BABYS (2003) **** Daryl Hannah, Marcia Gay Harden, mary
Steenburgen, Lili Taylor, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Susan Lynch, Rita Moreno,
Pedro
Armendariz Jr., Bruno Bichir, Angelina Pelaez, Vanessa Martinez, Juan
Carlos
Vives, Miguel Rodarte, David Hevia, Martha Higareda, Tony Marcin, Lourdes
Echevarria, Blanca Loaria, Guillermo Ivan Duenas. John Sayles continues
to
be one of Americas' best and original independent filmmakers in this
warm,
funny and at times poignant look at the adoption process at a South
American
clinic attended by six disparate women - all eager and emotionally at
odds -
awaiting their turn to return home with their new infant. Sayles - who,
as
always, wrote, directed & edited - skillfully weaves a complicated
tapestry
of social, political and humane themes concurrent and enables his fine
crop
of acting talent each a moment to shine (in particular Hannah, Lynch and
Martinez) of the heartbreaking stories they each share in the one
ultimate
goal: happiness. One of the year's best films.
