"After a stint in Mexican television, Cuarón made the break into
Hollywood with his comedy, Love in the Time of Hysteria
(1991), about a lothario misdiagnosed with AIDS by an
ex-lover...Cuarón returned to Mexico and came out with the
earthy and liberating Y Tu Mamá También (2001), his first
international box-office hit. " -

"Among
the most successful and talked-about Mexican filmmakers of his
generation, director Alfonso Cuarón has shown a remarkable
versatility, able to embrace old-school Hollywood elegance as
well as rough-edged and darker-themed contemporary stories." -

"Mexican
director Alfonso Cuarón reached new career highs
with his critically-acclaimed, award-winning Y tu mamá también
(2001), a sexually frank coming-of-age tale, set in Mexico, with
digressing voiceovers that explored the socioeconomic travails
of the workaday people encountered by its principal
characters...Cuarón's broad directorial range excels at both a
polished big-studio style and an edgier, grittier feel
associated with independent productions." -
