"This week they will hear it on Netflix, with the release of the first film adaptation in almost 50 years of the text that inspired Gabriel Garcia Marquez to write One Hundred Years of Solitude."
"The story is set in the decades around the Mexican revolution, more than 100 years ago, and those first words are uttered by Juan Preciado, who has travelled to the town of Comala to fulfil a promise made to his dying mother that he would claim the money owed to him by his father."
"Preciado descends into Comala as if entering an underworld...a ghostly chorus in a place where the veil between the present and the past, the living and the dead, is threadbare."
