There's defínete something special about this film. You don't see this everyday. A normal story that gets into the complexity of regular life. From the way it was shot, and the heavy dialogues and mise en scéne.

I don't know how fictional this masterpiece it's. But it touched something very close to home. I'm a filmmaker I'm Latino and also gay and this movie resonated in every aspect of myself even tho I've been alive on this earth for only a 23 years, maybe less. It's a brilliant, sad piece that creates uncertainty throughout. From the bringing we get an idea of where the story is going. But the way it gets there it's so effective that I couldn't keep my eyes out of the screen. I love that the kid fainted right after seeing the guy naked. Things that only happen in movies. I also love the interaction between the old lover. It's so so emotional and realistic. These themes are very sensitive and Almodóvar knew how to tell the story correctly. He gave it all without showing much. I questioned sometimes the style of acting. The way they spoke wasn't natural but it carried a tone that never changed so that way it didn't bother me.
