whose destinies intertwine from childhood and whose love lasts a lifetime. The novel of
Isabela Vargas, The House of the Spirits, is a beautiful tale of 2 lovers who have known each other since
Childhood until their love matures with time is a great work that deserves to be read, and its
the film adaptation does not fall behind in quality.

The homonymous film features a luxurious cast, having as protagonists a

young Winona Ryder and award-winning Antonio Banderas in the leading roles of Blanca
and Pedro, 2 lovers who belong to different social classes. At the same time, it has the
veteran Jeremy Irons' participation and the versatile Meryl Streep as Esteban and Clara. The story
narrates 40 years in the life of the Trueba Family, from Clara's childhood, her marriage to
Esteban, the construction of the Trueba estate, the Shakespearian relationship of Blanca with
Pedro, until the coup d'état of the conservative party in Chile. This story is complemented by a
magic element, Clara's ability to communicate with spirits and predict events that
will occur in the future. A very moving story that speaks of love, the classes
social, ideals, politics, and death.

Love is also timeless, it transcends through time and across eras. Ask for the

the same woman who gave him the gold watch that night eight years ago. Richard then decides to travel
to the past through self-hypnosis to meet that woman surrounded by an aura of mystery,
living such the greatest romance that has ever been in another era.

Similar to the previous case, we fear the movie 'Don't Die Without Telling Me Where You're Going', a movie
Argentina in 1995, where it depicts the life of Leopoldo, an inventor who worked in a cinema and is
obsessed with the idea of creating a projector that allows people to see their dreams.
During one of his rehearsals, he manages to record his own dream, where he observes a woman of
who falls in love. Shortly after, he meets that woman he saw in that dream, and he reveals to her that he is
the ghost of a woman from 120 years ago. She reveals to him that they have both been reincarnating as
a couple for a long time, but Raquel got fed up with her life on the ground and decides
