20 Years Later, These Are Still the Best Moments From Selena, the Movie
There's no denying the 1997 release of the movie Selena was epic. Though the late Tejano singer has been admired and mourned by Latinos all around the world for years, the film, featuring Jennifer Lopez in her breakout role, spread the story behind Selena's career and talent like wildfire.
Twenty years after its premiere on March 21, the movie still holds a spot on every Selena fan's heart.
