Manny's Movie Musings: an interesting plot set in The Bronx, NYC, "Babygirl" has Yainis Ynoa playing the title role, plotting to destroy her mom's relationship with a younger man who has his eyes set on Ynoa from the beginning. Ynoa's plan involves using herself as bait; but things get messy when Ynoa develops feelings for her mom's lover. At an age somewhere between a woman and a girl, the innocent Ynoa has a difficult time making sense of her feelings and what she wants; and yet she plays a serious game that can destroy her relationships with her mom, her best friend, and a nice boy who likes her. My most memorable, movie moment of "Babygirl" is the scene when Ynoa and the guy find themselves alone in a hallway late at night, staring at each other. It is tense and very creepy. Rosa Arrendondo gives the best performance in this indie movie that is mostly cast with unknowns.
