What the actual fuck. I watched this movie tonight because I have never seen Almodovar and this is his most acclaimed so I though I'd check it out. I usually don't get appalled by the moral complexities of a film, but this my god.
Can someone explain why they liked this please? I wanted to like it before watching but I just can't

Oh honey, I loved this movie. The screenplay is so original. I also like the way the story unfolds - although Almodovar's movie's always have flash backs and forwards. The cinematography is gorgeous. The music, etc.

The music, etc. I might of been a bit harsh right of the bat, yes the acting the cinematography, music were all pretty great and at first I was outraged by everybody's actions and reactions and just couldn't relate to the way Marco was behaving/doing after he found out Benigno raped his "love". I couldn't understand how Marco could have any compassion for him let alone try to help him get out of jail. Almodovar tries to get us to have an understanding and compassion for Benigno, but I just couldn't and I also found myself believing Marco is a terrible person for trying to help him.
All in all I'll grant Almodovar credit in challenging me to soul-search and see what I would do in the situation presented |
