Selena (1997) [Re-Release]
from Do We Like Movies? Hosted by Angel Figueroa & Javier Lopez
We have decided to re-release this 2021 episode since we have reached the 30 anniversary of this musical icon's tragic passing. We reviewed the Jennifer Lopez star vehicle based on the life of Mexican-American pop icon Selena Quintanilla-Perez. This is a movie that is so prevalent in Hispanic American culture that it has colored much of how we view the late Tejano singer, and it a great snapshot of the struggle for first and second generation Americans to maintain connection with our heritage. Along with the review of this film, Angel gives some thoughts on the new Netflix series, and trigger warning as we also dip into True Crime land by discussing the details of Selena's murder.
