I’ve placed a link to the movie version of the novel. It’s very similar to the novel since Esquivel wrote it herself and she originally conceived of the novel as a move. It may be helpful to explain some scenes, but it also makes some changes. Sometimes the changes are significant (we find out much earlier, for instance, that Mama Elena had another lover, meaning we spend more time possibly being sympathetic for her). Some are minor.
It’s on the Resrouce page under the director’s name “Arau, Alfonso” (so it’s right at the top).
