Now, sure, arty black-and-white Spanish-language bildungsroman films aren't everybody's cup of tortillas. But if you can see it on the big screen, you'll be rewarded. Partly because it looks so great, and partly because it's a sedate film that needs a real investment on the part of the viewer.

You need to buy into Roma right from the opening shot, which gazes for what seems like forever at a tiled floor. When you've paid your money and you're sitting in the theatre, you're invested in the film, and you're more likely to lean into this hypnotic image. Perhaps it'll occur to you that by opening with a shot of the floor, the movie is literally grounded, a visual metaphor for the emotions playing out on the street and in the home. Perhaps you'll spot the passing aeroplane reflected in the mirror-like surface of the damp floor and muse that for these characters the prospect of escape is barely glimpsed, remote, impossible. Perhaps you'll recall your own memories of the tiny details of your former lives.
