Title: A DIFFICULT, FASCINATING FILM
Product review: Yes, it is a difficult film, but it is only confusing if you don;t go with the flow and resist the chronological fragmentation. The stories involve the same characters at different points in the past and the present, and the viewer must provide the framework. Jorge Sanz deservedly won the Goya as best actor that year--bu the way, he gives Eduardo Noriega a run for his money in the looks department (inclkuding some frontal nudity). Victoria Abril is a truly protean actress--she plays three different roles in the movie. Banderas, thankfully, has only a minor role. Aranda is one of the best directors around!
