Two brothers, Tato (Gael García Bernal) (nicknamed Cursi) and Beto (Diego Luna) (nicknamed Rudo), go from "hick" banana farmers in central Mexico to professional futbol stars, from "nobodies" to "somebodies".
Rudo y Cursi is based on a screenplay by Mexican screenwriter and film director, Carlos Cuarón.
Rudo y Cursi translates from the Spanish to mean "Rough and Corny". Another translation (referring to the two main characters) could be "Tough and Silly".
No. Alhough Rudo y Cursi stars the same main actors -- Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal -- it isn't related to Y tu mamá también (2001) (2001). In the former, they are brothers. In the latter, they're high school friends.
