I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and so did my companion. Luminarias has drama, humor and relevance to the lives of all of us. It is not just a "chick flick" and is more than a Latina "Waiting to Exhale!" When you leave the theatre, you really care about what happened to the characters. Evelina is supremely talented. The other main characters were multi-dimensional. Really enjoyed the "Lilly" character. She has great timing. I have already seen this four times and can hardly wait for it to come out on video, so I can share it with more of my friends. Que viva Luminarias!
