Washington Heights | Year: 2002 Classification: Drama Directed: - Alfredo De Villa Worth a look This movie is worth a view. To sum it up, the main character, Eddie has dreams of illustrating comic books, and gets a shot at is, but he also has obligations to his father, and that is keeping him from focusing on his dreams. Being from a traditional family, you see how Eddie is forced to weigh both family and career obligations. I can't forget the scene of Eddie grudgingly changing the diaper of his injured father. He hates doing it, but he is loyal to his family, so he deals with it. The acting could have been better. I don't hold that against "Washington Heights" as it is an idie film from a young producer on a limited budget. The scenes of the Washington Heights neighborhood in New York are very vivid and accurate. Tomas Milian puts in great performance I really enjoyed this movie because its so realistic. It really shows typical hispanic "barrio" type areas. Tomas Milian was especially creative playing "Eddie". He is the most beloved and active local Bodega owner who gets shot and his whole life changes. His son Carlos has to take care of him. The interaction with Sean and his son is especially poignant as well. Overall I would recommend it to all hispanics and also to any others who want to see a good feature film.
