Before she tried on a pair of magical pants or transformed herself as the award-winning star of “Ugly Betty,” America Ferrera appeared in the indie charmer “How the Garcia Girls Spent Their Summer.”
The movie’s been kicking around at festivals since 2005 and is just now being released theatrically, but it further reveals Ferrera’s naturally lovely screen presence, something which was first on display in her acclaimed but little-seen 2002 debut “Real Women Have Curves.” Here, she plays the youngest among three generations of women who discover themselves, and their sexuality, during a long, hot summer in an Arizona border town.”*
