Review of Roma (2018) by Jp32 — 15 Jun 2020
It serves as a portrait of a side character in Cuarón's life, his family's loyal housekeeper, Cleo (Yalitza Aparicio). Cuarón finds in her story, a sweeping odyssey. No, she isn't commanding armies or leading a revolution, but her journey through life's familiar stresses feels just as harrowing.
Credit for this feeling of grandeur has to go to Cuarón, who projects immense emotional power onto recognizable facets of everyday life.
