Amores Perros
This Mexican Oscar nominee for Best
Foreign Language Film lost to
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in
2000, but it's a much smarter, more
original film, and it's every bit as
entertaining as the kung fu flick that
defeated it. Weaving together three stories
of difficult love, Amores Perros pays
homage to Tarantino's Pulp Fiction
without being just another derivative
imitation. Plus it features convincing acting,
engaging plotting and lots of pretty, fluffy
dogs. Just like all the great movies used to
do.
