Very solid adaptation of the book that took all the themes, characters, basic structure, and narrative beats and crafted something different with them. They also got Andres Baida naked a lot and 👍
positive · AI labelView post →From HBO Latino’s Like Water for Chocolate to Netflix’s One Hundred Years of Solitude to Amazon’s The House of the Spirits, Spanish-language magical realism is having its television moment. But the genre has proven difficult for Anglophone shows to crack.

neutral · AI labelView post →For reasons (the remake as a series), I was thinking about "Like Water for Chocolate" 1993, and this review by Roger Ebert (I miss that man), and how food, passion and love are often present in genre romance novels, in varying flavors depending on locality, period, and other elements of setting

Be warned, #LikeWaterforChocolate doesn't have the conventional happy ending. So read the book, and after your heart breaks, read the Chocolat Series by Joanne Harris youtu.be/NeVLROw2SEo

neutral · AI labelView post →Having now watched the movie and episode 5, I feel Like Water for Chocolate is better as a series. There’s just too much plot for 2 hours, and the show gives the characters room to breathe and develop. I especially appreciate the extra time with Dona Elena. I guess I need to read the book asap

We're gifted a "City of God" series as a sequel to a 2002 movie based on a 1997 novel. And of course "Game of Thrones" sequels, after a series, after novels. 3/
