¿Tú qué harías por amor?

"¿Y tú qué harías por amor?" is a beautiful and dramatic story of two brothers who live at the outskirts of Madrid: the older works with two great friends for a drug dealer, and the tragedy begins when one of the friends dies in one of their drug affairs, then the other friend gets hooked on drugs and the girlfriend of the older brother forsakes him; the younger likes to do graffiti against the war with his best friend, a black boy.

The performances are very good: the entablished Fele Martínez plays the older brother, the great Paco Rabal plays the drug dealer and the new discovery is Alberto Escobar, who plays the younger brother; I hope to see him in other movies. The director is Carlos Saura Medrano (son of the well-known director Carlos Saura), who encloses the film with good music like Tonino Carotone and Dusminguet.

Spanish title: Tu Que Harias Por Amor.

Just Run! Reminded me of the British kitchen sink dramas of the sixties, such as Saturday Night Sunday Morning and The Loneliness of The Long Distance Runner. These movies explore young men who are disillusion with society who live in cramped housing and drink their sorrows away.

In Just Run! The movie focus on a young man who is involved in criminal gang. It starts with a drug deal gone bad that leaves a friend died. Plus, he has a younger brother who idolizes him.

The film depicts life in late 20th century Madrid as a place of drug addicts and hopelessness.

The movie director, Carlos Suara Medrano is the son of Carlos Suara.

His father made a similar movie in 1981 called Deprisa, Deprisa. There was about three friends who go on a crime spree in a desperate attempt for better lives.

However, Just Run!, feels like an extension of that movie. It shows nothing changed in the twenty years between both movies.

The movie is at it's best when it is focused on the younger brother and his friend.

Suara Medrano even had his dads' ex-girlfriend Geraldine Chaplin play the brother's mom.
