Well, 3.5-4. Almodovar's refined melodrama is slightly weaker, but the power of the image link is still strong (rewind), I feel that the light imagery he uses is more precise (the seaside), and the part touching the image points directly from "Bad Religion" Desire" and later explores the subject between negative images and digital images, where the director's slogan is directly touching, and the film history (the film miracle of a trip to Italy) and film noir are better than a Q

This movie is disappointing

[first lines]
[in Spanish, quoting English subtitles]
Modelo: What's your name?
Mateo Blanco: Harry Caine.
[voiceover]
Mateo Blanco: I used to be called Mateo and I was a film director. I was always tempted by the idea of being someone else, as well as myself. Living one's life wasn't enough, so I invented a pseudonym, Harry Caine, an adventurer who, as fate would have it, became a writer. I had him sign all the scripts and stories I wrote. For years, Mateo Blanco and Harry Caine shared the same body, mine. But a moment came when suddenly I could only be Harry Caine. I became my pseudonym. A self-made writer made by himself. There was just one unforseen detail. Harry Caine would be a blind writer.
