Cinelatino to premiere ¿Cómo le Digo?

Fans of the famous chart-topping Mexican corrido band Los Cuates de Sinaloa will be able to enjoy their acting performance in the exclusive worldwide premiere of the original movie, “¿Cómo le Digo?” premieres on  Cinelatino, on Friday, June 16, with a repeat on Sunday, June 18, 2017.

Inspired by a song by the same name by Adolfo Valenzuela from Twins Enterprises, “¿Cómo le Digo?” tells the story of two friends who are caught in the middle of a love triangle that leads to betrayal, infidelity, and revenge. Set against the backdrop of a small-time drug ring in East L.A., a beautiful woman seduces the two friends to get to the man who murdered her mother. The name of the film, which translates to “How Do I Tell Him?,” gives full meaning to the feelings of guilt and betrayal felt by a man who allows his best friend’s girlfriend seduce him. Los Cuates de Sinaloa perform stanzas of the hit song throughout the course of the movie.

Gabriel and Nano Berrelleza, the two cousins who make up Los Cuates de Sinaloa, star in the mystery thriller alongside Michelle Vargas and Henry Zakka. The film also features music from “Los Sobrinos de Sinaloa,” as well as appearances from other popular corrido musicians, among them Edgar Quintero, “Christian Salazar y Los Desvelados,” Luis Barraza, and Kike Meneses.

“Los Cuates de Sinaloa have a huge and passionate fan base in the United States, and we’re thrilled to bring this film exclusively to our viewers,” said Jim M. McNamara, Vice Chairman of Hemisphere Media Group, Inc., Cinelatino’s parent company. “Corridos, which are narrative ballads about socially relevant topics, are an important part of Mexican musical culture. We saw enormous potential in turning a famous corrido into a movie with musical components.”

The “¿Cómo le Digo?” premiere will culminate Cinelatino’s weeklong action stunt leading up to Father’s Day. The stunt, which kicks off on Monday, June 12, will feature an array of adrenaline-charged Mexican action flicks, among them Un Día en Sinaloa, La Clave del Acordeón and El Señor de Los Cerros, each night of the week in primetime.

The song around which the film is based is featured on the newest Cuates de Sinaloa album released in early 2017 titled “Recordando el Rancho.”
