Nochebuena

Nochebuena achieves something most Latinx/Latino films don't achieve, authenticity.

From the balance of Rene Rosado's character Junior in the big city to Tanairi Sade Vazquez's Jennifer still in the hometown feel.

Elba, The Mom felt like a MOM.

Jennifer's cousin is literally all of our cousins, from gossip to wingman to that horrible sign!

The feel of coming back home for the holidays to see what could've been is something we can always explore & Nochebuena does that.

I think what I enjoyed most about this movie is the subtleties, the choice of house, the food on the table, the kitchen scenes, the flashback's weren't forced, it added depth to the story.

It will seriously become a favorite because the audience regardless of where they're from will be able to see themselves on screen.

This film, Nochebuena, masterfully intertwines the heartwarming essence of family, tradition, and culture. Seamlessly navigating relationships, the film presents relatable characters who grapple with genuine emotions, delivering a poignant reminder of the strength found in unity. Its portrayal of the holiday spirit is captivating, evoking warmth and hope among viewers. A perfect choice for gatherings, this beautiful film earns a resounding 10 out of 10 recommendation for its ability to resonate deeply and kindle the festive cheer within families, friends, and the Latin community. Definitely will be a favorites film added to watch during the holidays!

The next time I get the question "What's your favorite Christmas movie?" - I will no longer give a long list of the typical classics, or feel uncertain of my answer. My answer will simply be.... Nochebuena!

Nochebuena so very properly and accurately showcased Latinx culture. There were so many moments where I completed related and just wanted to jump into the movie!!!

This film is so important because it's going to help audiences understand how there is more than the generic classifications and generalizations about Latinx culture. Our culture, especially during the holiday, is full of love, music, food, diverse family members, traditions and of course.... Coquito!!
