Robert Abele Los Angeles Times Feb 19
There is, after all, a reckoning for Maria’s situation we can’t help but keep in the back of our mind. Because our first brief glimpse of Clara is a sympathetic one, we know “Calle Málaga” won’t settle for a tidy resolution. Go to Full Review

Louise D. @FastGal Feb 18 Very enjoyable. I loved it. The street scenes are great. Lots of fun with the soccer playing. You don’t have to be a soccer fan. It’s nothing to do with that. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Feb 8 Success in 1 hour and 56 minutes. See more Read all reviews
