Negative Positive
Title: Mami Dearest
Review: I never watch film with subtitles for the obivous annoying reasons but something drew me to this film and I am thankful for the wonderful experience. This film was visually rich and stylish, complex and wonderfully acted. It was a character study about motherhood and womanhood and all the delicacies, heart aches and confusion inbetween. I'm not sure what Almodovar's obsession is with drag queens but he's sprinkled a few around to add to the mix yet it suffers in the film, making it feel to slapstick at times. But that's it's only fall. Otherwise its a gripping beautifully toned story about the love of our mothers and the pain of their journeys.
