This Pedro Almodovar's movie was outstanding. The start was exciting which reminded me of '21 grams' but slowly this movie drifted beautifully to create an exciting story. The reference to 'Street Car Named Desire' all through the movie has allowed me to take a resolve to see that movie soon!
The style of direction reminded me of French movies(for example 'Amelie'), with a narrator with a heavy voice speaking fastly briefs us regarding the state of the story and the emotions that the characters carry within.
Cecilia Roth and Penélope Cruz looked stunning in this movie.
The plot also included characters who are cross-dressers and transvestites. Guess, Spain is the first country to make same-sex marriage legal. Guess, the tolerance in this country hit a new low, when a visiting English football team's black-players were booed by a racist-crowd. Guess, it has to be a brave initiative by the director to take a movie which deals with complex-characters.
