This movie reminded me of the movie Sube y Baja with Cantinflas. I have always liked movies that have an ocean setting. It seems as if one can just put reality on hold and just live a little. Danzón is one of those movies that has that type of story. We see the everyday life of a woman, Julia, and how a visit to the beach can really make a person feel alive. This movie really emphasizes that even if you do not seek a vacation, it is really needed to fully value what you have or what you need have.
The music, the dancing, and sense of community in the film gives the audience the setting that they are there in Veracruz. The choice of music is lovely, from Augustin Lara to Julio Jaramillo. They sing such romantic songs that adds beautifully to the movie. The instrumental beach music makes it so hard not to dance to.
Overall, it is a movie that stepping out of your circle may not be so bad. You might meet nice people, see beautiful sights, and just enjoy who you really are. You even might set out on a path and end up on another to self understanding. One is never too young to have fun and it is never too late to set out on an adventure. This is a movie that makes me want to fall in love.
I would recommend this movie to anyone who has a broken heart, or feels as if they are going nowhere in life. I would recommend this movie to anyone who feels suffocated in this point and time in their life. I believe that this movie would put a smile on anyone's face.
Also, make sure to understand all of the names of the boats, they will make you laugh.
