This is the third time I've watched this movie. The first two times were abandoned because the feeling of sweeping the grave in the cemetery was too depressing. This time, it was really boring, and it is true that there are very few Spanish-language films introduced in China, so I decided to try watching it again. I feel that the biggest bug in this movie is that my daughter, a child of a consanguineous marriage, has nothing to do with it, which is beyond my comprehension. In addition, I feel the courage of women, especially after becoming mothers. Of course, it is not the courage to kill people and then do business in the restaurant where the corpse is hidden, but the courage to protect their children and their families. The reason why this movie makes sense is that a small village or town in a developed country like Spain may only have a dozen households, and some villages may have only 1-2 permanent residents throughout the year, because many young people go to work in big cities Same as China. So it's not so quick to find out when someone dies, and how to be cared for in old age is also a big problem. To be honest, the real Spain is so different from what Almodóvar's films show, so basically every Spaniard I know scoffs at his films and thinks he's smearing the country. But as a Chinese who has lived in this country for many years and has many friends, except for murder, rape, and incest, everything else is still very grounded.
