‎‘Pain and Glory’ review by Sucheing • Letterboxd

Pain and Glory 2019 ★★★★½

Watched Dec 11, 2019

-"Pues ponerle buena cara y cuidarle en todo. Y si tú ves algo raro, me llamas".
-"Señora Mercedes, aquí todo es raro".

I went into this movie not knowing what it was about. I decided to watch it out of curiosity of being name Time's number one movie of the year and wow!... it delivered.

I loved the production design and the costumes. Little Salvador reminded me a bit of Salvatore in Cinema Paradiso. In fact, the movie reminded me of Cinema Paradiso.

Antonio was splendid as well Penelope. The music and cinematography were also good.

The big plot twist at the end was unpredictable and I loved it.

Hats off Almodovar.
