Raymond Thomas Pronk, Staff Writer | November 8, 2022
If you are looking for a date movie, I recommend seeing the 2006 movie “Bella,” a redemption, family and love story, available on DVD and YouTube. The movie stars Eduardo Verastegui as José, a professional soccer star, on his way to sign a $2 million contract when an accident changes his life and career choice from soccer player to (several years later) chef in his brother Manny’s (Manny Perez) Mexican restaurant in New York City.
