New Almodovar film, "Parallel Mothers", v gd. ****
"Parallel Mothers", director: Almodovar ****
I know some people dont like Almodovar. This one has a slightly older Almodovar feel. What beautiful sets, apt design inside, curtains, ash trays, all details warm and rambling with ease, these everyday objects, clothings, its all creative fun-chic style wrapped around serious contemporary issues of the past and the present in Spain - and not limited to Spain. Young peoples orientations, womens sufferings under a general accepted "norms" of male dominant society, and many other unspoken - but v explicit narrations through images, for me, that is a film worthy of a re-watch. Will watch it a second time.
More detail review to come after second viewing
