'Roma': Alfonso Cuarón's latest movie offers a look at his 'bubbled boyhood' through the eyes of his nanny
Director Alfonso Cuarón has always given us glimpses of broken families and the longing for an estranged father in almost all of his films. Harry's urge to feel the presence of his father, James Potter, and his immediate satisfaction upon realizing that he is not all alone in the world when he discovered his relationship with Sirius Black, in 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban' (2004), couldn't have been better depicted by Cuarón. His movies have always looked back at some parts of his childhood, be it 'Children of Men' (2006) where fatherhood came in the form of rebellion or 'Gravity' (2013) where a mother recalls her memories with her child at the time of immense danger.
His upcoming movie 'Roma', set to release on Netflix on December 14, is already creating a buzz with its controversial deal with Mexico and Italy, where the movie is being screened in only 40-50 theatres.
