    Comments about "El Arreglo"

    This movie is one of the best movies that has been filmed in Argentina. The lines and the actors are excellent. I have to recommend this movie because is just great. Federico Luppi is the main actor and plays a very important role in the film, and I think it's one of his best roles.

    The price of do the right thing

    One of my favorites movies from Argentina. The simply story of a person (Federico Luppi) who doesn't want to pay "black money" in order to have what should be a right: water. Just for wants to do the things under the law, Luppi will lost the respect of all the neighbors (who do accept to pay money to a person from the local government to have the connection to the public water), and his own family who doesn't understand –and won't pay- the need of do the right think. In some parts of the picture, Luppi remains to a modern and south American Gary Cooper in High Noon, but in a very often situation in the Argentina of the last 30 years.
