I've actually seen "Under Spanish Skies" twice -- once when it was starting its award-winning turn on the festival circuit and last night again on Amazon. From the get-go, I've thought this film had three things really going for it: the cinematography is excellent; the story is theatrical (in the best possible meaning of that term); the acting and directing are top-notch. But what really struck me the second time around was how deeply resonating the story remains. This is life and death stuff and you'll think about the characters' decisions long after the credits roll. This is a facile comparison, but the film is sort of a Gen-X, indie "Big Chill"--but where that film manipulated your emotions with boomer nostalgia (egad, that soundtrack!), "Under Spanish Skies" slowly and expertly peels back layers of raw emotion that have underpinned these friends' relationships over the decades. I highly recommend this film.
