...actors’ adroit work is bolstered by a well-calculated set design: no prop, from TVs to teacups, is without purpose. The repetitive techno-remix score follows the same path, deliberately building tension—at least, when Madonna isn’t singing. However, the costumes are the production’s piece de resistance; to imagine the maids without them is to imagine Roxanne without her red dress...
...oldest brother was threatened, he said, “I should hire an Indian to do it for me.” Despite the laughter that followed, the air became significantly tenser.In that short moment, pretty much ending the conversation, so many power dynamics and varying life paths of modern day Guatemalans were depicted.

Despite the region's industrial prowess and rich entrepreneurial spirit, this proud region of less than 2 million people saddled on the western slopes of the Pyrenees has since the 1960s trudged a destructive path of terrorism, extortion, government dirty wars and the social numbness that often accompanies deep fear and unspoken pain. ETA's goal of Basque independence from Spain and France was pursued, from the outset, through selective attacks against police and military forces but became more and more indiscriminate - a bomb in a Barcelona supermarket in 1987 caused...
