I saw the flim today...Mexican love at it's most ...uh, irrational... All the familiar stereotypes are there, plus the model chica bears a striking resemblance to Vanessa de CC...replete with mole by lip. All Spanish...(They translate the title as "Love is a Bitch"...) with English subtitles, featuring some familiar Zona musica... You'll hear every cuss word in Spanish in this one...a veritable Niagra of "cabrones, hija de puta, putas madres, pendejo (very popular expression in this film) and others... During the dog fights, the spectators use the phrase "chingalo!" which the subtitles translate as "kill him!"...seems more like "fuck'im over" Not for the squeamish...lots of blood all around in this series of linked love vignettes taking place in D.F. They say no dogs were harmed, but they must've shot'em up with megadoses of valium or something to get'em to play "dead"... Nonetheless, a marvelously composed piece of cinema... KRICO
