A Telenovela For Everyone (based on a true story)
27 May 2007
This telenovela stimulates every human emotion. It's the type of drama that sucks you in, makes you watch during any free moment you have, and keeps you thinking about it when you can't watch it. The characters are real and tangible as if John Irving himself created them. True, it gives close insight into an unsavory part of Colombian society and history that we would rather forget, but it also serves the purpose of reminding everyone-- Colombian and other-- how destructive greed and vanity can be. Learn Spanish and watch it. Aside from the above, men, you'll love the hot women and women, you'll love the hot men. In fact, according to my mother who was in Colombia when it was airing and everyone was addicted, most of the actors are not really actors. They are simple people themselves with little to no acting instruction taken from the barrios of Medellin. Their accents are genuinely paisa and they are authentically Colombian.
