Everyone harbors secret scenarios of revenge for wrongs wrought upon them — scenarios that, were they played out, would lead to unspeakable catastrophes. But our emotional intelligence tells us to use constraint and keep our actions in check. We swallow our pride and sweep perceived injustices under the rug. It’s a matter of getting through life without provoking and escalating harm through acts of revenge.
If you want to witness the logical conclusion of ultimate vengeance, go see Argentine film director and screenwriter Damián Szifrón‘s dark black comedy movie, Wild Tales.
Prepare yourself to be shocked. And prepare yourself to see the best revenge of the bride scene ever put on film.
Now that your mind is on Spanish language entertainment, here’s a recipe to round out your experience, Wicked Tuna Tortillas with Fruit Salsa.

- 1/4 c each chopped scallion, cilantro
- 2 t minced canned chipotle chilies
