By looking at the title of the film "Real Women Have Curves," audiences can clearly know that film will talk about a group of women who have different sizes as others. This culture movie talked about a Mexican American family's life in L.A. The main character Ana is an American- born girl who has an old fashion Mexican-born mother. Sometimes they have had hard times communicating with each other because they grow up in different cultures and her mother Carmen always convinced Ana to do some things as her. This film has own style, which made it more special than others, such as the characters' chosen and their authenticity. Most female characters in the film were not good-looking women. It helps us related to real Mexican Americans look like. The main character Ana was a regular high school student who was not as other girls who make up and dress up nicely to go to school everyday. She cared about her schoolwork and she tried hard to convince her family to agree with her to continue her education. However, her mother Carmen thought that Ana should stay home, take care of men and get married to a nice person instead of thinking about college. Therefore, after Ana graduated from high school, her mother convinced her to work in her sister's dress factory which Ana was not very happy about doing. In the dress factory, most workers came from Mexico, wanting to have job in the U.S. However, even though they work hard making dresses, they did not get paid enough, only receiving $18 for each dress and each of them will be sold at $600 in the stores. When Ana heard this unfair business, she wondered why her sister still doing the job that she didn't even get paid fairly. One day in the factory, Ana felt so hot of working in the humid room which did not have any conditioners. Ana did not care about what her mother said concerning how fat she was, she just took off her clothes to cool herself. Her mother thought Ana was crazy and she felt very embarrassed that Ana didn't care about her appearance and body size. Her mother always said that Ana was too fat and she needed to lose weight. Other workers started to talk about fatness, and all of them thought they were fatter than one another. They started to take off their clothes to compete with each other to see who have the fattest body. They didn't think being oversize is a bad thing and they have confidence in their appearance. In this scene, audiences can see a truth of these Mexican American women. Even though they are overweight, they have confidence about their looks. In addition, it showed they are real women who have curves.This movie was not only focused on culture and women, it also focused on the motions of each member of the Mexican American family. Ana's dad seemed understand what Ana really wanted to do in her future, and he always stayed positives on Ana's decision. Her grandfather loved Ana and he respected her decision, too. Her grandfather even helped Ana dated with Jimmy who is Ana's boyfriend without telling Carmen. Other family member, such as her sister and boyfriend, all support her for going to college and continue her education. If you are interested in Mexican American culture, I recommend you to watch this movie and it will give you many information of how Mexicans' lives look like in the U.S.

The film Real Women Have Curves was written by Josefina Lopez and George LaVoo and directed by Patricia Cardoso. It stars America Ferrera as Ana Garcia, Lupe Ontiveros as Carmen Garcia, and Ingrid Oliu as Estella Garcia. It takes place in present day Los Angeles, California.This film takes on a few different issues. Self image, particularly pertaining to women, the struggles of Mexican Americans in the United States, and the generational differences in Mexican America households.The title, Real Women Have Curves, makes it abundantly clear how the writer views women in America and their self image. Patricia Cardoso doesn't buy into the media driven image of women as skinny twigs with no meat on their bones. Throughout the movie, Ana's mother nags Ana about her weight, but Ana is proud of who she is. She isn't trying to lure a man into marriage as her mother implies that she should. Its interesting how Ana is so defiant about her weight towards her mother but is self-conscience when she is around her boyfriend Jimmy who thinks she is beautiful the way she is.The Garcia family, like so many others Mexican American families, works long and hard for what they get, but even after so many years they are still relatively low on the job scale. Is it because they don't have the skills to do anything else or is it because their employers know they are willing to work for at those lower wages without complaint in fear of being fired or deported? I happen to think that it is a combination of both. If they were a dressmaker in Mexico, a dressmaker is what they will likely be in America. There is little room for learning new skills when a constant source of income is so vital for a family trying to stay afloat. Their employers take full advantage of this. One scene that illustrates this point is when Estella tells Ana that they sell the dresses to the distributor for $18 who then sell the same dresses for I think it was $600.Ana and her mother butt heads throughout the film. Carman is very traditional, marriage and a family is the pinnacle of a woman life to her. Ana is almost a polar opposite. She wants to go to college and make a career for herself before giving any thought to starting a family, much like the average American high school senior. Going to college at all is unthinkable to Carman, let alone Columbia University, so far away from her family. Most mothers would be overjoyed if their daughter received a full ride scholarship to any school, no matter how far it may be. Carman's emphases on the family almost makes Ana give up the wonderful opportunity.Real Women Have Curves is a very good film written, directed, and staring women who have gone through some of the things that the Garcia family went through. It is a superb representation of a Mexican American family living in the United States and the issues that arise in doing so.

Real Women have Curves is an alright film. We had to watch it for a class, otherwise I'm not sure I would have picked it out. America Ferrera does an excellent job portraying a girl that is caught between growing up in the white dominated United States, and her Mexican heritage. She is confused, and in a way an outsider. She is well suited in this leading role. Lupe Ontiveros steps out of her typical role of maid, and delivers a performance that makes you feel sorry for Ana, and hate her. She portrays Ana's mother who doesn't understand why Ana doesn't want to work, why she wants to go to school, and why she embraces her curves. Overall this movie dealswith the cultural/political undertones well, and ends up being a real feel good tale.

I thought this movie was excellent! It was so funny and really portrayed a day in the life of a curvy woman. I loved the part when they took off their clothes at the factory. And it really shows the work that goes into making clothes and how they get nothing for it but the dresses get sold for hundreds of dollars.The emotional reactions of the daughter to the mothers nagging and belittling comments were very moving, I could feel her pain. I love how the daughter got up the strength to feel good about her body in spite of her mother. I would recommend this movie to anyone but especially young curvy girls that are struggling with self esteem issues.
