Intimidad

I watched Intimidad because I loved Itziar Ituno in La Casa De Papel. While I think Ituno shone as Malen Zubiri in Intimidad, I was incredibly moved by this series as a whole. First of all, the cinematography was gorgeous. While it moved at a slower pace than I expected, I thought that the show dealt with topics like sexism, discrimination, violations of privacy, sex crimes, workplace harassment, grief, and mental health in a compassionate way. I loved that the show focused on the experiences of women from all walks of life, and I think this show can be very healing for anyone who has had to struggle with any of these issues. I know that it was for me.

It's a slow burn but brilliantly acted and there's so much female power and lessons for us all. I think maybe those with more advanced thinking will appreciate it.

I don't agree that it is a series addressed to women. I think it is addressed to everyone and this is a very real social issue. With the advent of social media, mobile phones and the recklessness of people trying to revenge or expose other persons this is a very realistic story touching different people in the series. Good lesson for younger people.

Good scenario, excellent acting, good cinematography and even the ending is quite realistic.

Quite an engaging series. It's binge-worthy at 8 episodes.

What do I like about it? The script is well-written, the stories are multi-layered and the themes it tackles resonates with the viewer. The viewer, either male or female easily relates with the characters. And the actors portraying them are praise-worthy; their acting is spot on.

The stories themselves are about ordinary people just wanting to make a mark in the world in the best way they think possible and struggling to try to realize it. The insights the movie imparts amplify the human condition. Moments of introspection by the characters reinforce these insights.

This is another example of a long list of fine Spanish films worthy of our attention. No braggadocio just solid acting. As it is made, it's complete; all the major issues are resolved. A season 2 might not be needed although the producers and director could surprise us with a better season 2.

... served by wonderful cast and great cinematography (all aspects).

Such a delicate issue requires great deal of delicacy and the script, directing as well as the acting - did not spoil it by triviality or boldness and managed it in a subtle, non-manipulative manner.

Photography and settings were a delight and a very fine tribute to the beautiful city of Bilbao.

The music was just as good but regrettably I did sense any add-value from it.

I very much enjoyed the fine gallery of actresses portraying their rolls so naturally in so-called "gentle water-colors" way, yet I wish there was much more of the great Patricia López Arnaiz.

Sheer pleasure.
