Relief and Rebirth

Chance 2022-04-24 07:01:16

This is the first time I see the director's work, the story is connected by three men and two women. Male 1 mason is Almodovar's sexual enlightenment and sexual awakening, male 2 actor colleague Alberto is a combination of angel and devil, a combination of agreement and contradiction, and it is a combination of achievements and abuses attached to Almodovar people. (Contradictions in the interpretation of "Taste", the director's negative comments on the starring Alberto and the film industry's praise; he directed both white powder and addiction; he was both an enemy and a friend and finally achieved the success by performing "Addiction". The adventure of reuniting the third man Fedri and Almodovar!) Naturally, the most important man in his life also appeared on the screen and could embrace each other. The two reunited after a long absence. After Almodovar learned that he had a new female family, he couldn't help but secretly saddened himself, but he also got his male friend, and there has been no one else since him... kind of consolation? Avamodo has since been relieved of the past and reborn! As for the two women, one is Suleima, a colleague and assistant, who manages a simple life for him; the other is his mother. The contradiction between them is trivial, separated by a layer of veil, which reads "I don't understand" that his care for women cannot be meticulous, sensitive and thoughtful.

    Love the decorative paintings at the Banderas house, love the fridge magnets at the Almodóvar house, love the glass bottles from the Almodóvar collection, the scarlet cabinets with ice blue tiles, the patterns on the toaster and the kettle, make up a The living and fragrant world of Modova. The semi-autobiographical film is the director's confession, like the smell of urine in the depths of the cinema. Childhood is a wooden egg for sewing socks, or a snow-white cave with a winding path leading to darkness and light. The uneven walls are painted with thick white powder, pasted with flower tiles, hanging green vines, and baptizing in the cave. It is dazzling, like a sudden heat stroke in midsummer, smoldering for a lifetime

    I think Almodovar must have something special to keep alive. His true honesty came after he gave up the form of play in play. Hope to see.
