Pain and Glory is a 2019 film by Spanish director Almodovar. Most of the Armodovar films are irritating, violent, and expose the dark side of human nature, this film is the opposite, replaced by warmth, sincerity and touching, it is the aging Almodovar director A summary of my life is an autobiographical film directed by Almodovar. It involves his childhood and growth experiences and his old age. For El Salvador, pain and glory coexist, and pain is obvious. Yes, the scars on the back, the pain that needs to be suppressed by smoking cocaine, and the occasional choked neck, etc., the more pain is the mental pain of recalling life in old age. So what is glory? It was Salvador's painful childhood that inspired him to create and brought him glory, and what is the glory of his life, in my opinion, is reconciliation, that is, accepting the reality and letting go of the past. Salvador's reconciliation lies in his reconciliation in old age with himself in youth, with his mother, and with his Mexican lover. He faced up to the disease and pain of the body, and finally put his life into creation to complete his sincere return. I love the theme of the movie, all those big words that seem empty are actually the things we've been wrestling with our whole lives. The bigger and emptier it is, the more real it is.
