Solo Con Tu Pareja (Criterion Collection) (DVD), Criterion Collection, Foreign

Before Alfonso Cuaron helmed the international sensation y tu mama tambien, he made his mark on Mexican cinema with the ribald and lightning-quick contemporary social satire Solo con tu pareja. Don Juan-ish yuppie Tomas Tomas spends his nights juggling so many beautiful women that he can't keep their names straight - until one of his many conquests, a spurned nurse, gives him a taste of his own medicine. Beautifully filmed in widescreen by the inimitable Emmanuel Lubezki, Cuaron's wildly successful feature debut gave voice to a Mexican middle-class that had remained largely unseen onscreen and surveys contemporary urban sexual mores with style to spare. Part of the Criterion Collection.
