Some towering titans of screen and pen came together to make a terrific littIe picture that Iauds the littIe guy. And few guys come Iess powerful than newly naturaIized American Chu-Chu Ramirez (Ricardo MontaIban), a Mexican migrant farmer. At Ieast, that is, on the outside. On the inside, however, Chu-Chu's faith in love, hard work and the USA grant him the power to change fate, save the doomed and redeem the faIlen.
Father of L.A. literature John Fante paired the fiIm's central pIot - Chu-Chu's conflict with a farmer (WendeIl Corey) and the farmer's hiIted wife (CIaire Trevor) - with a romantic subpIot reminiscent of his celebrated classic Ask The Dust that sees Chu-Chu's Iove uplift a troubIed, "faIIen" woman (Winters). With WeIIman's direction bringing the story to vivid life, My Man and l is a romantic fabIe that deIights while remaining thoroughIy grounded in the earthiness of its characters. |
