Almodovar is point blank my favorite working film

Almodovar is point blank my favorite working film director. He is one of the very few auteurs whose movies are wholly unique and in a world of their own. You know immediately when you're watching a movie by Pedro. He specializes in overdramatic and outrageous plots, colorful and over the top production values and especially eccentric and unforgettable female characters. And while this doesn't even come close to reaching the unforgettable peaks of his masterpieces like BAD EDUCATION and TALK TO HER, this is still a highly enjoyable roller coaster ride involving family conflict, murder, show business, deceit and all kinds of twists and surprises. American audiences raised on cookie-cutter assembly-line motion pictures may have trouble adjusting to something like this. I can't imagine any American director who would be able to achieve this type of outrageousness while still keeping a toe or two in reality - somewhat. Visually stunning and great performances by the two leading ladies. There are some tonal issues here between the dramatic and the comedic - but this is overall one of Almodovar's under-appreciated offerings.

Un crimen por números con la receta básica

Un crimen por números con la receta básica de Almodóvar: una problemática relación madre-hija, un escenario de celos, personajes estrafalarios. No está cerca de sus mejores obras, pero en el fondo tiene sus algos que le dan vida.

This early Almodovar movie's plot seems to have

This early Almodovar movie's plot seems to have been quickly written to shock and surprise an audience in a clumsy way that did not ultimately engage me. Too weird to be amusing, as far as I am concerned.
