Like I always thought I'd seen "All About My Mother", only to find out it was "High Heels." It's just that that is the daughter and the mother, and this is the mother and the son. Compared with the tension between mother and daughter in "High Heels", "All About My Mother" is more about the warmth between mother and son, although short, it is the center of the film.
I really like the mother in the movie, her eyes are always soft, whether looking at the beloved son, the star who indirectly killed her son, the lover of her son's father, or the father of the transgender son.
The amazing thing is that Penelope Cruz is pure and beautiful here. I knew her because of Tom's girlfriend. I didn't like her at first. After watching her movies, I became more and more fond of her. Especially recommend "Paris Smoke", which Theron is also very good. I just like this kind of tender and strong woman, and so does Isabel Adjani.
