RNIS was invited to this screening by 20th Century Fox.
This screening was at the Jam Factory in South Yarra. The movie was well received by many bloggers and their children who were happily playing with balloons during the movie.
The story is about being true to yourself and being selfless. It is also about fighting the enemies within you.
The story is set in Mexico during the Day of the dead. Mary Bell (Christina Applegate) reads a story about Maria and her true love Manolo in the 19th Century. Zoe Saldana was wonderful in playing the rebellious princess and Diego Luna is Maria's true love. Maria is a beautiful woman.
The story starts when Joaquin, Manolo and Maria were kids and Maria was being rebellious. One day she let the bull into the town and it scared most people. Manolo fought off the bull but Joaquin was praised for his actions. As a punishment for her actions Maria is sent to Spain to learn how to be a lady.
Over the years Maria learns lots and appreciates the finer things in Europe. Manolo is trained to be a bull fighter but his heart is into songs and his love for Maria. When Maria returns Joaquin proposes. She thinks about it and eventually they marry.
But she still loves Manolo and they meet over the bridge. Xibalba (from the Land of Forgotten) sends a snake and it bit Maria. She dies and Manolo is blamed for her death.
Then Manolo goes home to the Land of the remembered and he reunites with his family and learns that his relatives were good at bull fighting. The scenery for the Land of the remembered was nicely done
Mary Bell in the present day aslso tells the children about the land of the forgotten and the land where everyone remembers you. The Land of rememberance is beautiful and that's where Manolo's family lives. When Manolo visits they forgive him for not visiting sooner and in the end they help Manolo fight against the bandits.
In the end they get married and fight all the bandits together.
Thanks Nuffnang for the invite and do watch the movie when it comes out on the big screen
