Jay Harris Yes the the star of this movie is one of Spains leading TV & film actresses.Her performance has won a few festival awards as best actress in 1997.I doubt this film had any major release in the USA.It should have.Its is a rare gay themed comedy that is free of the usual clichés we find in films of this sort, made in the USA.Miss Leon is a teacher & her best friend is a lawyer who just happens to be gay. They have mostly gay friends BUT they to do not fit the typical stereotypes.Yes there are some bitchy lines but lines like that are in many modern comedies.This delight was written and directed by Yolanda Garcia Serrono & Juan Luis Iborra.Only quibbles I have is that the running time of 88 minutes seems a bit draggy in spots & occasionally the subtitles are a bit hard to read..All in all this is a far better gay themed film than what has been released by US film makers.Ratings *** (out of 4) 86 points (out of 100) IMDb 8 (out of 10)

ULizardi I loved this movie. It had its funny moments what with esperanza being a woman of some restraint, and Ramon being a giant pervert. There friendship is epic, all because you can see the true love there. It is moving, and I loved watching it. maybe they could have gone into a more detailed view on the lives of the other supporting characters, but what we saw of them was good. Sad yet loving, this movie has it all!I do recommend this film if you are looking for something with love and a little humor.This is probably a good view into the world around us, and how different it is.It might help you appreciate what you have and give you a look into what you don't want to have!

ccmiller1492 Kudos to everyone involved in this production. Spain's "amor de hombre" is depicted with great wit, style, humor and compassion. As usual, Andrea Occhipinti as the fickle lawyer Ramon stands out. Loles Leon as the ever hopeful, helpful and aptly named Esperanza is his perfect foil. Throughout the course of the film it becomes evident that even with a basic sexual incompatibility these two people genuinely care for each other so much that it is unlikely that each would ever find a better mate. The sequences where each tries to fix the other up with a lover are hilarious and touching. Even the most minor characters are well drawn including the lowlife Roberto who is such a disappointment to Ramon.

danco-2 This film shows the rainbow of relationships among gay men. It ranges from the long-term to the hustler looking for a partner to take financial advantage of. But most important, it portrays the yearning of most gay men to find a lifelong partner and to simply be loved.
