Not a bad flick but it doesn't even look like Mexico.


I dunno what the location scout was smoking but the look was all wrong, also I didn't think Mexico was known for its Mathematicians.

What makes you think it is supposed to take place in Mexico? Did I miss the part where they said where it takes place? The movie is a Spanish film and so I would just as easily assume it takes place in Spain.

Since Mexicans do speak Spanish, and thats pretty much the only spannish speakers americans know (europe is a country in africa according to majority of them) they automatically assume spanish language = mexico.

Is that so? Maybe teen-agers do these days..I couldn't say.
But wouldn't have to be Europe, now would it?
This North American assumed somewhere in South America and was correct.

But I do have to admit that I did a double take on the subject line.......
huh?

reply

Last I checked Spain was not in South America. Not even in US textbooks.

How do you know he's american. also, everyone knows where europe is. most europeans, however, can't find places like taiwan on a map

reply

He thinks everyone speaking Spannish comes from Mexico, of course hes american.

And no, sadly not everyone know where europe is. In fact sadly a sginifcant amount of people mix up africa and europe. Also Taiwan is a country, so comparing it to a continent is unreasonable. American knowing where Europe is is equivalent to European knowing where Asia is.

It's Spain, genius.
Spain is a country in Europe.
And Europe is a continent on planet Earth.
Do you know where planet Earth is?

reply

It was Spain, but Mexico (like any country) has mathematicians,(e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%ADctor_Neumann-Lara).
