In my trip down to the States, I managed to see only 1 movie in the theatres (I blame crappy Holywood productions) and it was not an obvious choice. Critics have hailed The Matador as “a delightfully sly diversion“, which I have to agree. I had read Roger Ebert’s review before going into the movie [...]
