Manito (film)
Manito is a 2002 American independent film written and directed by first time film maker Eric Eason. Shot in the cinema verite style, Manito chronicles 48 incident-packed hours in the lives of a Washington Heights Latino family. One of the most critically acclaimed films of the year, Manito was hailed by critics as a film that heralded the reemergence of American neorealism and won a Special Jury Prize for Best Ensemble Cast at the Sundance Film Festival and Best Emerging Filmmaker at the Tribeca Film Festival.
Plot
Manito is set against the backdrop of a changing inner city that was once a neighborhood filled with thugs, drugs, poverty, violence, and dubbed the cocaine capital of the United States, tells the story of two brothers Junior Moreno (Franky G), an ex-convict struggling to get his life back and Manny Moreno (Leo Minaya), the salutatorian of his high school class. Although the dealers were disappearing from the neighborhood, their violent legacy remained casting a shadow over the 'hood and its residents. The film begins on the morning of Manny's graduation when various principal characters reluctantly roll out of bed, communicating with each other in overlapping arguments and cell phone conversations. Muscle-bound hunk Junior Moreno immediately channels his ever-hot-tempered energy toward long-suffering wife Miriam (Julissa Lopez) as well as the Mexican foreman (Panchito Gomez) who recruits day workers for Junior's not quite legal home-plastering biz. Reasons for Miriam's wary demeanor soon become obvious: Being a husband and father hasn't cramped Junior's lady-killer instincts one whit, with wealthy female business clients definitely on his to-do list.

Llegas Tú
Con el calor de una sonrisa
Y el perfume de la brisa
Llegas tú, llegas tú
Pequeña como los luceros
Y diciéndome un te quiero
Llegas tú, llegas tú
No sé si estás
Pensando en realidad
Que eres mi verdad
Que cada día más
Te quiero
Ven enseñame a soñar
Pues sabes que al marchar
No te podré abrazar (2x)
Si todo el mundo fuera mío
Las estrellas ó el rocío
Fueras tú, fueras tú
Y dando tumbos al vacío
Volaríamos unidos
Porque yo, porque yo
No sé si estás
Pensando en realidad
Que eres mi verdad
Que cada día más
Te quiero
Ven enseñame a soñar
Pues sabes que al marchar
No te podré abrazar (2x)
Te quiero
Ven enseñame a soñar
Pues sabes que al marchar
No te podré abrazar (2x)
