This romance story concerns about attractive love stories for the technology age along with social habits in N.Y.C. . I turns out to be a moving comedy well realized by Jorge Torregrossa about a marvelous friendship leads into an unexpected consequences . It follows the story of two young cousins , Juanito and Jorge . Juanito (Javier Cámara) moved to New York to follow his dream of being a big star . Years have passed and his expectations have been faded ; as he spends his life working in different jobs to survive . As he carries out part-time jobs , as a stage actor and a Cousine teacher . One day his cousin Jorge (Raul Arévalo) arrives to visit him , expecting Juanito to be a successful person . There Jorge falls in love for Holly (Sarah Sokolovic) and while Juanito falls for Jojo (Tammy Blanchard) .
This is an enjoyable romantic comedy with brief touches of drama about life of two agreeable cousins in a foreign big metropolis : New York . Dealing also with separated people in a long distance and they must rely on modern technology to keep their relationship alive , as happens on the special relationship between Juanito/Javier Cámara and his mother/Gloria Muñoz . This is an exciting as well as touching flick filmed with great sensitivity and feeling . This is a well-crafted and strikingly intimate film though monotonous about some separated people , as when you are oceans apart in love , you have to find creative ways to connect . It's an intelligent and charming story although sometimes is slow moving and tiring but is finely developed with sense of style and sensibility . Very pleasant yarn , filled with emotion , artistic scenes and plenty of sensitivity . The good thing about this film is that the director made it on a limited budget only having to do a few sets , yet the movie works on many levels but is constantly reconfigured . Very good acting by Javier Cámara as a frustrated actor who didn't achieve the wished success and nice Raul Arévalo as sympathetic cousin . Both of them have a good chemical as two particular roles living together and , early , will discover the truth about each other .
Luxurious photography with juicy atmosphere by Kiko De La Rica who photographed successes as ¨Lucia and Sex¨, ¨Oxford crimes¨ , "Witching & Bitching" , ¨Blancanieves¨, among others . Atmospheric musical score by Federico Jusid , including the catching song : ¨But Not for Me¨ written by George Gershwin and performed by Javier Cámara . Good direction who does have its emotive moments , most of them in the second half , being mostly romantic and some moments dramatic . This comedy with social elements was compellingly realized by Jorge Torregrossa , a little famous director , being best known in his native country as a TV director (such as Gran Hotel , Imperium , 14 Abril Republica , Tierra De Lobos) . His most known film was ¨Fin¨ with Maribel Verdú , who in ¨Vida Inesperada¨ makes a brief cameo , this motion picture marks Jorge Torregrossa's debut feature as a director but was garnering so much attention from international sites . In ¨Vida Inesperada¨ offers us an intelligent flick of foreign young people at a big city , intimate and committed . Rating : Acceptable and passable . Well worth watching .
