I'm learning Spanish recently, and I'm also fascinated by Almodovar's films. The images of women he portrays are all distinct.
Is Julieta's life like the elk chasing the train when viewed from the window of the dining car on the night train? It is said that it is chasing its other half, and it is amazing, but it is also a glimpse.
But if you think about it, it's not, it should be the pursuit of the bull elk. Because, in Julieta's life, there is always pain when she is pursuing. Only when she is pursued, such as with Lorenzo, can she have high light and inner peace.
She saw how her mother was treated by her father after she was bedridden, and the nature that the bull elk always pursued gave her a half-brother.
She saw that her lover, obsessed with the nature of the bull elk's pursuit, would go to reconcile with her childhood confidante in the interval between her occasional departures.
Facing her parents, she chose to remain silent. Facing the pain of losing her husband, she couldn't bear the depression because she blamed herself. But what hurt her the most was her daughter who also blamed her but walked away silently.
But the daughter finally understands that only through the same pain can mother and daughter communicate with each other.
After more than ten years, when all the pieces are put together, I hope they can find their inner peace.
