Where are we in love

During the whole viewing process, we didn't know what kind of story Almodovar was going to tell, but when the story we were looking forward to came out, we stopped paying attention to it. This may be the characteristic of Almodovar's film narrative. He incorporates a lot of strong colors and singing into his slow narration, and what kind of fate women or men have experienced is gradually deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. When moral judgment does not appear, we long for it; and when moral repentance appears naturally, we seem to have already understood the hero's behavior. Because seeing their pure original intentions will surely arouse our compassion. It's not a very good movie, if you compare it to the later "Return" or "Tell Her", but it also runs through a kind of soulfulness. Perhaps a child's fascination with his father or mother only begins with something, like the red high heels that Almodóvar grabbed. The estrangement between a child and its parents is sometimes not because of the many changes in growing up, it may be simply because of consistent attachment. In Almodovar's films, in addition to the little girl's love and hatred for her mother, Almodovar also injected a lot of warm elements. And for his lover, he would rather resign immediately. And the boyfriend that the female volunteer fell in love with. Are we at peace in such a story situation and deeply in love with flamenco? In other words, in such a warm life, everything is worth discussing carefully and worthy of originality?

    The plot is more tortuous and the characters are complicated, but what does it have to do with comedy? Little Rebecca is so cute. A girl's mother returns after 15 years to find her daughter has married one of her (the mother's) old boyfriends. They try to mend their broken mother/daughter relationship and deal with their common lover.

    The color of Almodovar is always strong.
