There's honestly nothing from 2018 that comes close to being as good as this. It is truly pure Cinema. One of the great peaks of the entire medium
Ehh Really...?
Roma is a great film but i will personally keep Climax and First Reformed ahead of it.
@@anitaekka6454 yes really. Even over those two films. Which I also love. Climax came out in 2019 in America though so it's going to be on this year list for me
@@highwind1991 Oh actually i didn't knew Climax came out this year in the US. I saw it last year at Toronto film festival.
@@anitaekka6454 I honestly feel we were the last people on Earth to get it.
@@highwind1991 Atleast you guys had a proper release. In my country there wasn't even a proper release for this film i was quite lucky that i was able to attend the Toronto film festival.
What frustrates me here is that by being nominated for best picture it automatically is declared the winner of best foreign language film if the word 'best' means anything.
Maybe if they're going to give it Best Picture, they'll give something else Foreign Language film for some diversity in the categories? Like Roma will get Best Picture but instead of the obvious, they'll award another great movie (Cold War or Shoplifters likely)
@@psycane8462 But then the categories are meaningless.
Also it's decided by votes.
I agree with the Netflix part. I saw it with my family in my little home theater room. It was amazing to see my parent sing the chants while the movie was playing and saying "oh I remember that and that...when I was a child". Roma was a great movie experience with my family.

Sorry man
amazing review. thank you
Great review! I'm not sure if anyone's mentioned this and it's not major or anything but the Cuaron character in the film is not Pepe, the younger brother, but the older brother that got slapped. He has mentioned this in several interviews, for example here: www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/film/2018/dec/21/alfonso-cuaron-on-roma-we-cast-for-almost-a-year-i-couldnt-find-the-right-person
Isn’t it that Pepe (the youngest who plays “dead” with Cleo and the one who narrates “when I was older” in his past life) is referring to Alfonso’s younger brother Carlos, while Paco (the young boy who eavesdrops his mother and gets slap by her) is Alfonso Cuarón? He mentioned this in one interview.
CUARON, say it properly please.
It pronounced KUARON, not Caron, has an U in the middle.
Good video.
Apologies for my gringo tongue
This is Cuaron's masterpiece.
He has a few to this point.
I really liked seeing your perspective on this. I confess I had mixed feelings about this movie, and I think it's because I was not the target audience for it.
This is a beautiful-looking film made for Americans, maybe also for white rich Mexicans who spend half the year in the US. at least those who aren't horrendous racists (I'll spare you the headlines about reactions to Yalitza's photo-shoot). The story about the suffering domestic worker has been told in Latin America so many times, and (beyond the gorgeous long shots) this one added little to that. And (I feel like an asshole for thinking this about a personal heartfelt portrait) but I really don't think the little blond kid asking for the milkshake is the best narrator of Cleo's life, and -to me at least- it becomes evident when you watch the film.
Mexicans are American
I thought it was foreshadowing that she said she enjoyed being dead.
I wonder if Cuaron actually did anything for his maid(whos probably dead) other than make a movie about it.
Sudev Sen Yep. Because everyone has a movie about his own life. ufff. Súper lame to have a movie.

She would visit on set/she’s had cameos in his other films. Kinda sweet actually
@@gabrielgurule aww that's sweet.Thanks dude.
She’s alive actually, she went to the premiere and everything, they are still friends
Man the Oscars are such a fucking joke, this was so much better than Green Book.
"Normal people watch this."
*Please don't be Green Book* OOOOOH NOOOOO
I don't like the way you talk about Green Book. Yeah it is not an artistic film, but to be honest it has a lot more to say than Roma, which only insinuated some vague stuff about racial inequality and family drama.
Maybe, but the quality and depth of what Green Book had to say was both unoriginal and shallow. We all get it by now, since it seems every year there's at least one Oscar nomination that has some grand message about how segregation and discrimination is bad and unjust. Do The Right Thing said what Green Book says, better even, and it's how old? 15 years?
thanoszev Roma doesnt try it to do that. The same way, Green Book doesnt tries to be pretencious.
@@LordofBroccoli What was original about the messages Cuaron was trying to express? That rich doctors tend to leave their families due to mid life crisis? Or that poor maids are not treated equally in the family? No shit Sherlock. At least Green Book had some top notch performances. This Latin girl barely spoke during the whole movie and her face wasnt that expressive either.
@@arminvanbuuren883 It was a very deep and subtle observation of the class relations during that time. And it was one of the most beautiful movies of the year. I liked Green Book but it was neither deep nor subtle about its subject. Watching great performances for 2 hours is fine, but personnaly I need more from my movies.
For me, green book has better acting and story than roma. Roma is my 2nd pick for the best film of 2018
Roma was a disappointment, it felt like a 5 hour version of Babel’s nanny subplot. The decision of shooting the movie in black & white, coupled with the lack of close-ups and the static and detached camerawork makes caring about those characters harder, while actively wanting you to feel moved by the ending. Maybe if Cuaron had chosen between the nostalgia-driven parts and the cynical tragedy-porn it would’ve worked, but the two combined feels like wanting to have it’s cake and eat it too.
Roma feels like a movie that is more concerned with it’s “every-frame-a-painting” type craft than with making the audience empathize with Cleo for most of the time.
And I’m just gonna go out there and say that Paranormal Activity 3 did the fan-shots better!
