"Two thumbs up!" -Siskel & Ebert

Love blossoms in the most unexpected of places in this sparkling, sexy romantic comedy about freedom, friendship and the true meaning of family. Starring Marisa Tomei, Alfred Molina, Chazz Palminteri and Anjelica Huston, The Perez Family is "a buoyant, colorful [and] optimistic celebration of the immigrant experience" (The Washington Post) in America in the early 1980s.

Free-spirited Dottie Perez (Tomei) is leaving Cuba for America, her head filled with dreams of movies, mascara and dates with John Wayne. Straight-laced Juan Perez (Molina) is headed for a reunion with his wife (Huston) and daughter (Trini Alvarado) he hasn't seen in 20 years. But when an overworked immigration official mistakes Dottie and Juan for husband and wife, the stage is set for a marital mix-up...and some very unpredictable romances!
