*Spoiler Review*

Editors Note; We had a technical issue that resulted in less than desirable audio for about the first 20 mins. We apologize for any inconvenience this may bring.

A 5 Year Review by Cinema Studs that takes the retrospective look at contemporary Cinema 5 years prior to the theatrical release of the film and ask if it Stands the Test of Time. We did it! We were finally able to watch as a group Bleak Street!! A Black and White film from Mexico that follows the lives of people living in Poverty stricken Mexico City Streets. 2 Little Luchadores, 2 lowly prostitutes and their families struggling to make ends meet and find any hope for their lives are they navigate their professions with grim reality by filmmaker Arturo Repstein. This film was only available for streaming within 5 years of it’s theatrical release. So if you are like most of the crew and had no idea it existed we can relate! Except for Alonso, who recommended it and persistently championed this film. We watched this black and white film that felt like it was plucked out of the 70’s but was released to America in January of 2016. The crew wrastled with their takes on this film and got put to work in this 5-Year Review of Bleak Street!
