this Friday its going to be a double Feature so that mean that the 1st and 2nd most voted movies will be the ones we watch

Movies usually play 08:00am & 8:00pm Central Time Cytube is a finicky beast and usually accepts Youtube, Vimeo, Daily Motion, GoogleDrive(requires plug-ins, ez pz)and occasionally others if it feels charitable that day. Here’s the manual

This Special Movie friday is from an Idea we had where the first Friday of each month will be a comm specific movie friday, this month being c/latam.

    Los Olvidados/The Young and the Damned

    Once he escapes juvenile prison, El Jaibo (Roberto Cobo) resumes his role as the ringleader of a group troubled street kids in Mexico City's slums. El Jaibo leads them to pilfer, but he wants retribution. Determined to find the man who allegedly sent him to jail, he enlists the help of Pedro (Alfonso Mejía), one of the younger boys. Before long, Pedro becomes entangled in a criminal world that threatens to destroy what little he has, no matter how hard he tries to leave that world behind.

    This is from Bunuel's Mexican period, and easily his most penetrable work. I liked it.
