Almodovar is my favorite director, from Spain. He did Habla con Ella, Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios, Todo sobre mi madre, and my favorite, Carne Tremula. Very awesome, risque movies. Most of the cinema I watch is Spanish films and I'm picking up a Castillian accent with my Spanish, so I need to start focusing in on South American Spanish instead. ^_^
it's a rad film.. even if you don't know or appreciate the significance of the people in it, it's still very enjoyable. And it's not too full-on like you'd imagine a movie like this one could be. (hope that last bit made sense)
Oh. Haha... for a moment there I thought it was some kind of narcotic or something. Anyway, to those who have not seen this movie, please do. You'll love it.
