Nochebuena (2023)
Nochebuena is authentic & funny, it felt like my family.
Nochebuena achieves something most Latinx/Latino films don't achieve, authenticity.
From the balance of Rene Rosado's character Junior in the big city to Tanairi Sade Vazquez's Jennifer still in the hometown feel.
Elba, The Mom felt like a MOM.
Jennifer's cousin is literally all of our cousins, from gossip to wingman to that horrible sign!
The feel of coming back home for the holidays to see what could've been is something we can always explore & Nochebuena does that.
I think what I enjoyed most about this movie is the subtleties, the choice of house, the food on the table, the kitchen scenes, the flashback's weren't forced, it added depth to the story.
It will seriously become a favorite because the audience regardless of where they're from will be able to see themselves on screen.
