Relief and Rebirth

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 is like a breeze, memories are accompanied by dreams, like, the top ten of the year are scheduled in advance. A story about how to face the aging, degeneration, old love, pain, and glory of the body, a movie about how to face the old age and enjoy it. Fighting, in addition to the strong colors, there are still warm feelings left. This is a movie that may take some experience and age to like. It is normal if young fans don't like it. I really hope that writers and directors over the age of 70 will make such films for themselves, David Lynch, Wenders, Scorsese, Hou Hsiao-hsien, Xu Anhua, Kitano Takeshi, Haneke, Mike Lee, Herzog ...

    Almodovar's "Keep in mind, there will be echoes". There are so many "stories" in his life, all of which can be told affectionately. While touching you and me, you can also imagine his tears of sorrow and joy behind the screen. The key is that he can still achieve appropriate distance and share this pain and glory, which is amazing.
