Through My Window
A high school girl, Raquel, is stalker-like obsessed with her rich kid next door neighbor, Ares. He, along with his brothers, are being groomed to take over the family business. This film follows the typical rom/com formula of star-crossed lovers; sweet innocent girl lusts after the bad boy, she gets boy, she loses boy, & she gets boy back. This film from Spain was dubbed in English although much of the written text wasn’t translated. I’ll have to assume nothing was lost in translation. Being not an American product, its Latin roots offers a steamier version of teenage sexual awakening as horndog Raquel throws herself at her gorgeous dream guy who seems to have a revolving door to his bedroom for young women. So don’t be surprised by the nudity & sexual content. If your heart beats like a teenage girl hopelessly in love, you may enjoy this one. Apparently, due to this film’s success, there are rumors of a sequel.
Alien gives it 3 “bruja“ stars out of 4.
