These were the bits edited out of Amores perros, the film that changed the life of Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu, 62, an advertising director and radio announcer at that time. You link Amores Perros to the work of Mexican muralists such as Siqueiros and Orozco. The disordered structure of Amores perros, which was a trend at that time, is also striking. With Amores perros, I was lucky enough to have an independent producer believe in me and provide $2 million. The three films we made together, Amores perros, 21 Grams and Babel, were an extraordinary time.
