Leave your thoughts about Nuyorican Dream.
| User ReviewAlejandro RThis move was so heart-wrenching and gripping for me, partly due to my experience of the massive gentrification of Williamsburg, Brooklyn where I was born, raised and still reside. I also wonder what has happened to many of the Brooklyn Boricua families like the one depicted in this film. Where are they and how are they holding up in 2014? I really wonder about the family in this film and how they must be today. The kids are very cute and despite everything so full of hope that things will get better. The ending scene with the great matriarch of this clan was so powerful and touching. Tears couldn't even really express what I truly felt as I identified on so many levels with the grief, the desire for a change in circumstances and the fight to try to make that happen. This film depicts a struggle with heroes, casualties, despair and hope all at once. I HIGHLY recommend for all Boricuas wanting to understand a tragic slice of the Nuyorican saga that still has a hero at the end of it. More heroes like this one are needed in our community. Robert Torres is the real-life hero in this 2000 movie filmed from 1995-1999 and today he's still in education and has even spoken at TEDx. As the eldest of five, he was trying to be a role model for his own family, as they desperately needed one. Since then he's gone on to get a PhD and still educates. |
| User ReviewJanette MDepressing what mixing poverty, no education & drugs can do... |
| User ReviewLaura PI LOVE this documentry it made me cry and laugh and made me think of my very own family. I would like to know whats going on with the family now. Good watch must see |
| User ReviewG RWhile this documentary is difficult to watch because it's very sobering, it's also something that's important to see. Far too many people in this country take what they have for granted, and this film was a definite eye-opener for me. |
| User ReviewKrys Mi spent a lot of time wondering where everyone is now and how everyone is doing. it's a good film but a depressing look at how poverty, a failed education system, and drugs have let members of this family to suffer. |
