Originality of a Women

The Movie “Tortilla Soup” is mostly about a retired maxican-american chef Martin Naranjo and his increasable art in food. More or less he is a real artist of making dinner for his family. The actual story begins immediately thereafter with Martin making a traditional great afternoon dinner for his lovely three daughters Leticia, Carmen, Maribel Naranjo. Although, he is old and has lost his taste in food but never shy of making great meal for his grown up daughters. Eldest daughter Letitia, who has concealed her own romantic desire, realized something missing in her life; attractive and well organized woman Carmen is an intelligent and successful but fed up with her boyfriend; meanwhile, College student Maribel is growing up humor women but wants a steady man. However, out of all the characters in the movie I felt Carman by her original mature.


Carman originality is to give the impression of being forward who always look for opportunity with both hands. She is never shy of thinking one step further and creates her own career. She is the most beautiful of all the women in the movie. She is 21 century women where her modern lifestyle shows in her clothing and in her behavior. She is very talented lady who pleased her boyfriend and father with her won creative cooking. Her career would have been better if she had accepted her new job. At the beginning It seemed that she has a settle life with her boyfriend but all of a sudden she found that her boyfriend cheating on her. But she controls herself very well at that moment when she found her boyfriend with another woman which shows her calmness. Carman is offered a high-profile job in Barcelona, but undecided about accepting it. Indeed, at the end of the movie her father takes her to the airport for Barcelona but she returns home. Her elder sister Leticia doesn’t really like Carman much but they all have enough fun to break plate together. She is the only critic of her father food in the family.


Nevertheless, Carman dressed like a professional women but later she decide to follow in her father's footsteps and open up a restaurant of her own creative food. In many ways, the movie reflects the love of family and its food in the dramatically end in the Sunday family meals, meanwhile, Carman give us a happily end scenario in her own restaurant.
