Today I saw, for the first time, Me before you. I had not watched it before because it seemed like it would be one of those movies which you fall in love with the character and then something tragic happens, but another writer recommended it to me for help with my book. I was looking for … Continue reading Be positive and don’t lose hope

I just realized yesterday that Solo: A Star Wars story was opening last night, I completely forgot, but I immediately contacted a very close source I have who never fails to find a way to get me into movies on opening night. Last three Star Wars movies and I don't remember how many Avengers, all … Continue reading Solo- No spoilers, I promise
That time of year is here, the time for the new Star Wars movie! Last night I was lucky to find tickets to see the new movie of the saga Star Wars: The last Jedi. I don't know what to say about it except that I think it's one of the best Star Wars, if … Continue reading Star Wars: The Last Jedi
There was no better way to welcome the Christmas season than going to the movies and watching a Christmas movie. So this is what we did yesterday, after Thanksgiving lunch, we went to the movies to watch this year's Christmas movie, The man who invented Christmas. This movie tells the story of Charles Dickens as … Continue reading The man who invented Christmas
I want to start by saying that I might have some nightmares of bombs exploding tonight after seeing Dunkirk, in the front row, on IMAX. I should have expected there were going to be a lot of explosions during a war movie where they rescue 300,000 men from a war zone, because that's what the … Continue reading Dunkirk
I love seeing romantic-comedies and I would love it more if they were true stories, I mean, how awesome would it be if The Wedding Singer or Love Actually were true stories? Well, today I saw that true story romantic comedy, it's called The Big Sick, but I didn't know this until the end. In … Continue reading The Big Sick
Today I went to the movies with one of the strongest women I know, my mom, to watch Wonder Woman. It was weird that she wanted to see a superhero movie, but not that she wanted to see a woman kick some butt. The movie did not disappoint, it told the story of the amazon … Continue reading Wonder Woman
When I said I wanted to be a writer many people told me "you're gonna be broke", you wont find a job", "te vas a morir de hambre" (you're gonna go hungry). I didn't listen, because I wanted to write, that's what I love doing and they always told me "you have to love what … Continue reading “The Last Word”, the life of a writer
Just in case, if you have seen the new Beauty and the Beast but have seen the original, 1991 animated version, don't worry, there are no spoilers here. If you haven't seen the 1991 or 2017 version I must insist that you go watch both movies, 1991 first, then 2017. With that said, I am … Continue reading Tale as old as Time
As I anxiously wait for the release of the live-action Beauty and the Beast and frequently look for any news or new clips to watch, I stumbled upon the news that more live-action remakes of my childhood favorites are already in the works, or at least in line to me in the works. Imagine my … Continue reading Our childhood favorites are coming back!
In school we learned all about how man went to space, then went to the moon, we learned the years, the names of the astronauts, but we didn’t learn about the people behind all of that, just that it was people at NASA. But we didn’t hear about the group of African American women who … Continue reading Hidden Figures- A story we should have known
I can't wait for March 16! Why? Because on March 16, the remake of Beauty and the Beast comes to theaters in Puerto Rico. Yay! Yes, this is the child in me speaking, not María but full on Kiki (my nickname and a some times I feel like it's kind of the child in me, … Continue reading Looking forward to “Beauty and the Beast”
I saw the trailer for a happy movie, a musical, a comedy, a romance, no violence, no killing, no war, the kind of movie that just gets you away from the real world, with Ryan Gosling. We have him in a musical, that is both comedy and romantic, do I need to say anything else? … Continue reading La La Land
Well, first of all I want to wish my older brother a very happy birthday. (You still haven't said anything about your gift. I'm waiting. Did you like it???) I should also mention that January 3 was also my late great grandfather's birthday, who would have been 110 years old today. I wish I could … Continue reading My opinion on Jackie
