Volver
i loved volver. it was just bloody beautiful. missed the first 4 minutes of the film but never mind that!
never have a i seen a film more about women than volver. well its true that i've watched almodovar's "all about mother" and that was also about women.... but this movie just blows u away because it is in its very essence about women and its made by a man. its really good to know that some men that still delve into the realms of the unknown and dig out such pristine truth.
a dead woman returns to pay her dues to her daughter and other people she has inadvertently wronged and in the process the curtain is lifted from the many secrets that u think are non existent in the quiet and charming neighbourhoods of spain. there is murder, betrayal, secrets, and the general air of "men-are-bloody-bastards' and all beautifully garbed in a flavour of womanhood..
Sigh!!!
