In the timeless city of Macondo, seven generations of the Buendia family live in love, oblivion and inevitability of their past and their destiny. To date, this is the most expensive Latin American Netflix project, in which Colombian groups and communities of indigenous peoples create props and scenery for the series. Charming. A visual miracle and a philosophical masterpiece. Pure magic. So light and easy to watch, but so deep. An adaptation that definitely does justice to the source material. I would like to know how to speak in Spanish, because I’m sure it’s much better in the original language, but in English it’s just mesmerizing. Not to mention how great the cast is. Just incredible. This is an almost perfect translation of “Magnum Opus: Cien años de Soledad” by Gabriel García Márquez. Excellent cinematography, a mysterious and interesting plot, insanely written characters, a love letter to Gabriel! It made me reread the book after ten years. “One hundred years of loneliness”; — one of the biggest TV and streaming debuts this month. See details in our December calendar!
