Husband and wife super-duo, Marc Anthony (Lavoe) and Jennifer Lopez (Puchi) brilliantly shine in their first film collaboration, recounting the life of musician/singer Hector Lavoe. Together they formed a soon-to-be legendary record label – Fania – and pioneered a musical sound combining Puerto Rican and American influences: salsa.

It was bad. It was beautiful." | More Information >> |
