Johnny One Hundred Pesos (1993)

Realistic depiction of poorer Chilean youth in the 90's

[9/10 · 18 April 2000]

This film presents realistic details of the problems, temptations and other dilemmas faced by the lower middle class and poor youth in urban Santiago (Chile). Though not too different from the plight of poorer urban teenagers worldwide, this drama is nevertheless worthwhile for those particularly interested in Chile. It also features good action scenes, and strong acting.
