Cuernavaca is the lush capital of Mexico’s Morelos state, cradled by the Tepozteco Mountains south of Mexico City. The colonial city center features the 16th-century Palace of Cortés, former home of Spanish conqueror Hernán Cortés and now a history museum with murals by Mexican artist Diego Rivera. Just southwest is Cuernavaca Cathedral, in a 1500s walled monastery complex with a mural depicting Mexico’s first saint.
Tijuana is a border city in Mexico, just south of California. Its bustling main street, Avenida Revolución, is lined with souvenir shops and lively bars. Landmarks include the neoclassical Jai Alai Frontón palace and Centro Cultural Tijuana, a modern cultural complex in the Zona Río district. Throughout town, stadiums stage lucha libre (wrestling) matches, while the nearby city of Rosarito fronts sandy beaches.
El cafre (1986)
The story revolves around a truck driver, who has enough debts and personal problems and accept an assignment carrying a doubtful package. His personal problems and the package make this an adventurous movie... It has thrills, suspense and drama. This is a low budget movie, or maybe a good funded movie coming from a country where films quality were lesser than other countries. It is very well made and the plot is fairly good. That makes this movie fair enough. Yet, it is the intensity, and the strength of the confrontational part of the movie that makes this one of the most exciting movies there is to see. This is the Mexican "DUEL". This is at least an 8 out of 10.
