Synopsis:
In my view this movie suffers from a narrative which aims to tell a complex political and sociological aspect. By no way i condem this approach but it isn´t told in a proper way and jumps back, forth between narrative locations and merge at the end. So how i want to tackle this in hope that the movie becomes more interesting? My approach is similiar to @L8wrtr ´s in his American Gangster - Two Tales edit (definitely a recommandation!) amd inspired me to try the same, kind of. Telling two stories separately before they flow into each other.
Intentions:
As the pieces of Alejandro and Matt makes up a huge amount of the overall storyline i´ll start with that till the point after they kidnapped Isabell and drove to the private jet to take her to the US. Followed by the shot of the Texas McAllen border sequence and the story of Miguel till his first "job" at the mall. After that the two plots are told more parallel until they merge (wittnessing Alejandros struggle at his border transport). Another big change i try to achieve is the ending. If you don’t want to know how, don‘t read the main post in my thread.
Change List:
Primarily i cutted bits and pieces along all scenes. The original beginning and end is removed completely. Rearranged the narrative as stated before, Miguels story starts 30 minutes in.
