This summer Columbia/Tristar is releasing six Pedro Almodóvar film on dvd. I have decide to watch as many of his film(rewatching some) as I can and yes as always review them right here.first up The Flower of My Secret.
imdb: Leo Macias writes sentimental novels with great success but hidden under a pseudonym, Amanda Gris. She is unhappy with her professional life and with her husband, a soldier working in Brussels and Bosnia that is never at home. She will try anything to change her life.
so i think that is was not the right film that I should have start with in the series. But here we go. The acting was great and the mood and locations added the the characters' heartbreak. However, i feel that the story wasn't completely engaging. It lack some of the humor that Almodovar likes to throw in there to take some of the harshness out of his dramas.
as always cinematography amazing.
i stand: GIVING THE FILM A "SO SO" KNOWING THAT I HAVE 14 OTHER FILMS TO REVIEW
going to rank his films
THE LIST:
1. The Flower of My Secret
