Today was our first foray into Cinematheque. We met Stanzi and T-Bone at Jackman Hall to see Midaq Alley, a Mexican adaptation of an Egyptian novel. The main selling point for me: a young Salma Hayek in her first starring role.

Not a bad movie, considering the budget they must have had. Except for the teeth. And the guy with the cheesy moustache. And the naked fat dude. And the rather amusing subtitle translation job. Ah, let’s face it, it could’ve been any movie and I would’ve liked it, ’cause she was in it. She’s so dreamy.

Sigh.
