If your daughter was raped, traumatized and committed suicide, how would you take revenge as the protagonist?
The answer given by "The Skin of My Living" is: kidnap him, give him sex reassignment surgery, plastic surgery, long-term imprisonment, will destroy the will, so that the rapist will be transformed into a woman from physical and psychological, and then have sex with him
However, this revenge story ended with an anti-revenge. The male protagonist who thought he had succeeded in the transformation began to indulge in the beauty of "his", and was finally killed by him, who was unprepared and cowardly. It should be from the inside out, not the other way around. A scalpel can't change a person's thinking, and no matter how cool-headed, bold and careful male protagonists are, once the sperm gets to the brain, they are not far from death.
On the one hand, I have to admire the brains of foreign screenwriters and their scale. I dare to shoot if you dare to think. On the other hand, the plot of "The Skin of My Residence" is too flat, which weakens the suspenseful color. And the ending could have been handled as an extremely high-spirited or dark climax, but it was weakened and left unfinished. If it were Nolan or Hitchcock, it would probably be very dark, but Almodovar’s aesthetic foundation is still very good. This movie is refreshing, and the Spanish actors and actresses are very good-looking
