Among these former prisoners is the young Ángel Santiago (Abel Ayala) and the veteran Vergara Grey (Ricardo Darín), a famous thief. The two have different plans: while Vergara Grey only wishes to regain his family and turn over a new leaf, Ángel dreams of avenging the prison warden and undertaking a grand heist with Grey. But then Ángel meets the young Victoria (Miranda Bodenhöfer), a ballet dancer who has not spoken a word since she lost her parents as a small child during the Chilean dictatorship. The lives of all three are changed irrevocably as they are faced with a new future. Director Fernando Trueba has said of the film: “I am proud of how I have portrayed (), I believe it is very interesting visually. This is above all a romantic film, but with elements of comedy and film noir. It’s film-noir and it is western, it’s realist and very romantic. Definitively Latin American.”〔(Fernando Trueba: "Estoy orgulloso de cómo he retratado Santiago" ) latercera.com por Marisol García - March 07, 2009 - retrieved on April 18, 2015〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Dancer and the Thief」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
