La ribelle

Actually it's like Almodovar MADE Pénélope. Despite some of their movies are just crap, Pénélope was also a very talented actress before their meeting and like Open your eyes, this one is excellent.

Péné plays a young italian woman in rebellion (OK, that's the title): because she is a thief, instead of being sent to prison, she is sent to church service, which is as strict, with maybe more feminine compassion.

So here she learns life: she discovers joy, love and falls again. This is a movie of hope and redemption and Péné's moods can express freely and rigthly... without Almodovar!
