Tiempos de azúcar (2001)
SUGAR TIMES (TIEMPOS DE AZUCAR)
I stumbled across this movie late last night on sbs, and was pleasantly surprised by it.
The movie centres on Miguel, who works in the family pastry business as a young boy.
From childhood, Miguel (Carlos Fuentes) has always been driven by two passions: his dedication to his family's pastry shop and his love for Angela (Maria Adanez), the girl next door in his village of Benidorm, Spain. Successful in business, but not in love, Miguel never dared confess his love for Maria as he feared it would conflict with her dreams of freedom and getting out of their village. Angela does leave their village and has a life a world away from Miguel but years later they meet again. Are they destined to be together or will fate separate them again? Directed by Juan Luis Iborra, this film was screened at the 2001 Malaga Film Festival. (In Spanish, English subtitles) (2000) PG WS "
all round a good movie, bout staying true to ur love but at the same time, showing the price u can pay by not expressing ur feelings to someone and missing a life without them. If you r into sad romantic movies u will enjoy this one
*********************spoilers alert**********basically wot happens***
Anyways, an amazing story of miguel's undying love for angela, he forms flings with girls but no one comes close as to his feelings for angela. A quite sad story of how a love for a person can leave u so unfulfilled with ur life, as it is with Miguel. He longs for Angela but doesn't let her til they're old, by this stage Angela is married with kids, she then leaves her husband for miguel, but at that same time, miguel dies in an accident.
