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.

Absolutely loved this holiday movie!! Had it all! Comedy, love, and tear jerking moments. Who doesn't love a great holiday romcom, where serendipitous love play with our emotions of wishing for a happy ending for Christmas. One of my favorite parts of the movie was the traditional "Nochebuena" aka Christmas Eve. The food, music, and the infamous coquito, it's like I can smell the pernil "roast pork" at its last minute in the oven or getting all dolled up just to be in someone's living room. Such a great representation of amazing Hispanic traditions and memories. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy for this holiday season.

Nochebuena is exactly what the world needs right now! A traditional Christmas love story, the one that makes you feel all of the feels! From the storyline, the decor, the hometown feel, amazing chemistry between the actors and actresses, the music and food, and all of the Latin Christmas traditions (can't forget to mention the coquito!)... this movie definitely hit it out of the park.

If you're wanting to feel like you're reminiscing in your childhood or trying to connect with the Latin culture, this is definitely the movie you'll want to watch!

Amazing job to everyone involved in bringing this story/vision to life!
