Viewing Notes

I’m a big, and long-time, fan of Almodovar, though I’ve fallen off the wagon the last five years or so and haven’t seen much of his output recently.

Antonio Banderas in excellent in this; it’s really a pleasure to see him return to form. I honestly think his talents have been misused in Hollywood.
