Easter in Latin America just hits differently when compared to other countries as Easter Sunday is often treated as a culmination of the Semana Santa or Holy Week and is a much more solemn affair.
With the holiday weekend coming up many families will want to stay home to celebrate Easter. They will ignore the current movie fare at the box office including "Furious 7," "Cinderella," "Home" and "Insurgent." For those not interested in this type of fare, Latin Post takes a look at "Hop" and a number of films to watch this holiday weekend.
The weekend box office is expected to continue its winning streak as "Furious 7" will be released and is expected to be a huge hit. The Weinstein Company will also release the specialty film "Woman In Gold."
Most of the time, giving up something for Lent means you end up with a lot less of something good. For one Toronto Christian, that something good is food, but he is replacing it with something some people might consider even better: beer.
