Selena's story had such a universal appeal that she was mourned not only by fans but by Latinos nationwide.
Because of Selena's father's hands-on approach to the film, there was early speculation that the film would be on a short creative leash and that the story might be told completely from Abraham's perspective.
Selena was someone who had not just tremendous talent but also a beautiful heart, and I think that's what her fans loved most about her.
Selena Quintanilla was a major figure in Tejano music, a Grammy-winning recording artist, a beloved star in the American Southwest and Mexico, and seemed poised to cross over into mainstream popularity on the U.S. pop charts when she was murdered on March 31, 1995 by the president of her fan club.
Selena later earns the wrath of her father when she becomes romantically involved with Chris Perez (Jon Seda), a rebellious and long-haired guitarist hired to play with the group, but when they elope and Selena convinces Abraham that their love is sincere, Chris is welcomed into the family.
Selena is the best movie ever!I loved the way she sang and didn't here about her until i was 5 years old the day her live ended on the news.
