The misadventures of Ricardo Trogi
Written and directed by the adult Trogi, 1981 recounts young Ricardo's move to a new neighbourhood. I love, I repeat, absolutely love movies about childhood. The Goonies and Stand By Me are the standards followed closely by The Sandlot. 1981 holds its own against those classics. This film is really funny and very poignant. It is also a French Canadian film and is heavy on the dialect. Ricardo's mom has such a thick accent that I could hardly catch a word she said. To me that makes her even funnier.
1981 is one of those rare, near perfect films and earns its 5 out of 5 Poblanos!
