Almodovar is a well-known name, but unfortunately he has little knowledge, and I have only watched such one of his movies so far. The small humor of Spain revealed everywhere in the film made me forget that this is a film with a bloody and bitter history. After Penelope Cruz won the 06 Cannes movie with this film, watch her gradually come out of the insider alienation from her dead ghost husband and her mother, and watch her change her face when facing the mother she thought was dead , the expression twitched when he turned and walked away until he finally decided to turn around and go back to accept the changes in reality, which was very enjoyable.
The plot is very simple, but the director put the core content at the end. Most of the time, he should tell the story with little fun music, and occasionally he gets nervous, but it's only a few minutes of drama. When the mother, played by the heroine of Almodóvar's first film and her old partner Carmen Mora, slowly told Cruz about the past that had the same destination as what happened now, the viewer could realize that the family's Four women have been searching for liberation in their ordinary lives, a way to truly return to happiness. So I laughed when I saw the last shot of the film. Although they hid three dirty lives in their hands, they finally redeemed the long-lost happiness. As stated in Midnight Scene, "Return begins with burial." Awakened memory, but also dug a grave for the unbearable past. The most important thing is to hold the same family that has been lost for a long time.
Last ps, Ana Cobo, the young actor who plays Cruz's daughter, is excellent in both body and temperament. In the comeback, the ignorance of young girls and the initial maturity of the atmosphere are quite suitable. One of the most admired members.
