Title: another fine film from veteran director Almodovar
Product review: In this somewhat biographical film by Pedro Almodovar, Gael Garcia Bernal plays a young man who has suffered at the hands of his school mentor, Father Manolo. This is a terrific gay film noir, with wonderful performances by the entire cast, particularly Bernal -- I will be vvery surprised if these two don't work together again. Once again Almodovar breathtakingly blends art and controversy; if you're interested in a movie that will evoke fascinating after-viewing discussion, any Almodovar film will do, and this is no exception.Extras include an excellent director's commentary, 2 minutes of deleted scenes, stills and two featurettes -- a making-of and a premiere. Spoken dialogue is in English and subtitles are in English.
