    [Screening at China Film Archive] Almodovar delicately and tenderly depicts the image of a beautiful and strong mother, which is unforgettable. Moved by his kindness, weeping for joy and sorrow. Instead, the male characters are intentionally distorted and missing. This film is a compliment and great celebration of motherhood, a tribute to women/mothers/transgenders/actresses. I was deeply moved by the big screen! The drama in the play and the comedy and fan elements are very...

    Almost every woman in the film, including half-females, has such a moment of brilliance that makes people awe-inspiring. To what extent can a woman's power be pulled and still maintain unwavering love and...

    #重看#4.5; A hymn dedicated to all mothers, beautiful female group portraits (comparison of several groups of mother images, reality reflected in the play), burning courage for life and kindness in the big hot red. Almodovar used humor, kindness, compassion and the greatest love to erase all traces of spectacles, all the struggles against the world, all the erotic desires that are alienated from the mainstream social standards, in the three Esteban’s lives. In the inheritance of the spirit,...

    There is an embryo in his belly, and it seems that the future through the cave will not be lonely. There are two more pieces of silica gel on the chest, as if life under the spotlight is no longer difficult. The blood of the three Estebans flows through the blood vessels, and the woman is miraculous as if the virus disappeared. Envy the old man who only remembers his dog, so he doesn't have to be tortured by the past day after day. All the group photos are missing one piece, and most of each...

    Woman, since ancient times, you are the one who hates you redundantly, and you are the one who smiles for your daughter, and you are the one who is right and wrong. It's a man's world, but it would be nothing without a woman or...

    Almodovar said: The film shows a woman's ability to withstand pain. Under the bright and strong colors are irrevocable death and suffering, prostitutes, transgender people, homosexuals, AIDS, drug abuse and other elements, forming a tribute to tolerance, open-mindedness, and strong motherhood. "Comet Beauty" and "A Streetcar Named Desire" are wonderful in-play scenes. I can't forget the notebook perspective and the near-death perspective in the car accident, the "time tunnel" and the colorful...

    The look and feel of the B+/second brush is slightly reduced, especially the rhythm of the last 1/3 is a bit tight. At first glance, I don’t have a particularly deep feeling about gender; the second brush feels that Almodovar’s aesthetics and its "female" concept are actually highly embedded in each other: the character plot color editing is strongly saturated in all aspects, and the whole is always restrained. Below the boiling point. Therefore, the abstract, extension and openness of the...

    It is not only the reality on the timeline, but also a stage play with a series of events compressed, and there is also the possibility of a play in a play. The suspiciousness of the text always exists, and it has become a unique pleasure. They all arise from men (the death of the son, the illness of the father, the escape of the boyfriend), but they are only related to women. Their identities change among daughters, lovers/wifes, and mothers, and they are actually "sisters." The red design...

    When I saw Esteban was hit by a car, I was stunned: how should a mother's love be shown when her son died so soon?
      But Almodovar has only just begun. Following her son's heart, she rescued her former transgender friend Aguda, took care of Mother Rosa, who was pregnant with Manila's ex-husband's...

All About My Mother quotes

  • Huma Rojo: There are people who think that children are made in a day. But it takes a long time, a very long time. That's why it's so awful to see your child's blood on the ground. A stream that flows for a minute yet costs us years. When I found my son, he was lying in the middle of the street. I soaked my hands in his blood and I licked them. Because it was mine. Animals lick their young, don't they? I'm not disgusted by my son. You don't know what it's like. In a monstrance of glass and topaz. I would put the earth soaked by his blood.
