    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Alfonso Cuarón did not want to cast Luna for the role of Tenoch because he was a teen idol and soap opera star. Bernal convinced Cuarón to hire Luna because their strong existing friendship would make the performance of their characters' friendship much easier. Cuarón ultimately hired Luna because he became convinced that their bond would produce a natural and honest performance.
    • Goofs
      The movie takes place in the summertime - we know this from the boys just having graduated, their girls going off to Europe, the weather, etc. Yet at the wedding near the beginning of the film, the narrator tells us that in a few days the president of Mexico will go to Seattle for the WTO conference - which happened in November.

      Tenoch: What kind of friend is always hiding?

    • Alternate versions
      Several scenes edited out of the final movie were made available for public viewing on the movie's official Web site. The director claims to have created multiple edits of this film to satisfy censorship rules around the world. According to the director, one of these edits, allegedly intended for Mexican distribution in protest of that country's heavy censorship, runs less than 10 minutes.

    Amazing, One of the most insightful movies I have seen

    People don't get this movie..there is so much more the just coming of age and having sex. It is also about the social disparity in Mexico. That is what all the overdubs were for. Every time there was an voice-over something of meaning was said about the surroundings and the way the average Mexican lives. Don't think of this movie as a story about three people, think of it as a story about a whole nation. I encourage everyone to watch it again. Please pay attention to the scene in the boat. that almost makes me cry. It is so well worded also. And the way the voiceovers just cut abruptly is a great. There are so many small things about this movie that make it so much better then your average Hollywood movie.
