Grandes hitos

About This Movie

So, 'Grandes hitos' is a bit of an oddity, really. It’s a showcase of Les Luthiers, that unique Argentinian comedy-musical group, where they mix sharp humor and clever musicality throughout. The pacing has this delightful ebb and flow, with skits that tease out laughter while also hitting on some cultural notes in a kind of tongue-in-cheek manner. The performances? Well, they’re spot on; it’s hard to overstate how engaging these guys are, even without knowing all the cultural references. If you’re into how music and comedy can intertwine, this piece has a distinct flavor that’s hard to find elsewhere.

The film, released in 1995, is a notable entry in Les Luthiers' oeuvre, but it hasn’t been as widely circulated as some of their other works. The scarcity of physical formats adds to its collector interest, especially among fans of Latin American humor. Its unique blend of music and comedy makes it a distinctive piece, appealing to those who appreciate the cultural nuances and the art of performance in a language that transcends borders.
