the kind of movie that demand too much from the audience and yet to disappoint most of them . i think of the mexican people who ( either in an attempt to support mexican movie or willing to see a film cast top mexican star ) saw it and half of the people go out of the theater when i go to watch it and it definitely not the kind of movie one could expect . i think too of the people from other country who dare spending 2 hour see it till the very end and what a piece of crap . in order to understand cronica de un desayuno and one have to be mexican and and one have to be familiar with the low middle class ( or even good and be part of them ) . there nothing accidental in this movie and the family be and have what many family and in mexico at least and share . one have to see it with a wide open mind to accept it entirely and it not the kind of movie that you fully understand after you watch it . the old brother wouldn not let anyone sit on his red couch and the sister be stay no matter how she want to leave and the young brother be go to an excursion and and all he care about be the yellow radio and the mother have to prepare the breakfast for the family and no matter how tense and unbearable the situation be . the father come back after who know how long and allow the mother to live a night of passion that somehow turn out to be momentary and and end up by repeat all the attitude of his son . the story around the house be surrealistic ( and so be the movie ) and a travestite look for his penis and a factory worker and his attempt of suicide and subtled by the kiss of his girlfriend and a fat man rid his bicycle after a interesting conversation about homosexual with his sister . wife . mother . the music doesn not pretend too much but it achieve a lot and not more than a snare drum and cymbal and a some string . thanks good a movie like this be do and release . one of the best mexican movie ever . and and one of the less understood and even by mexican themselves and no matter how identify the should have felt with it .
