I haven't read the original book, but only watched the movie once, and then I rashly wrote a comment, which only represents my personal feelings. lol. "Kiss of the Spider Woman" rewrote the usual screen image of revolutionaries. In the eyes of people in peaceful times, revolutionaries are angry and...

Kiss of the Spider Woman (Hector Babenco, 1985) contains a memorable intertextuality between fiction and reality, revolution and love. The film takes a Latin American prison in the 1980s as the main scene. Morina (William Hurt), a gay man who was arrested for molesting a juvenile, slowly walks to...

From the movie, it is difficult to say that the revolutionary Valentine fell in love with Molina, but Molina fell in love with Valentine and participated in the revolutionary activities. After reading it, I feel that a character like Molina deserves praise. Valentine's unforgettable memory at the...

"She is...Well, She is..." The film begins with a female title, and the light and shadow on the walls reflect a closed and narrow story space—the prison. Molina's voice echoes faintly in the small space, and his breath rises and falls with the plot of the story. Molina, played by William Hurt, is...

It is a play within a play. In order to emphasize the difference between reality and film (play within a play), the performance of the play within a play is deliberately treated with expressionism. The two nested texts employ the same narrative structure, an interweaving of the sublime narrative of...

The first part of the film is very boring, and the later part is slowly getting better. After watching it, my only feeling is: "Humanity". Watching a movie is a human adventure, a place completely unfamiliar to us. I'm obsessed with that metaphor: Spider-Woman and tears. From that moment, the film...

In the college days when there was no Internet and lived by "Watching Movies", I had heard of this movie. I've always wanted to see it, but never had the chance. Later, I bought the disc, and I played it for many years, and I haven't read it until now. Better than I imagined. The rhythm of the...

Spiders are cocooning themselves, and our protagonist Molina is also caught in a web, and this web is called love. We have seen too many brave women how to sacrifice everything for love. Although Molina is a man, he is indeed one of those women. Women are weak, especially in the face of violence...

I saw the stills in 1992, and was highly recommended by my friends in 2002. Finally, I watched it in the afternoon on a hot day. Politics and homosexuality seem to be sending good news to the movie awards. WH's OSCAR-level sissy performance is not difficult, of course, PSH's capote is also...

I just watched it last night. Even so, I forgot some details, but I didn't forget the extremely unbearable ones. In fact, if I only watched movies, I wouldn't have so many complaints. The problem is that I just finished reading the novel a few days ago, and the plot is still fresh in my memory. Let...
