Now this looks intriguing. Maybe a return to form and a revisiting of past themes? I seem to see echoes of The Law of Desire, Talk to Her, and The Flower of My Secret in some of the shots. I like the idea of him working with a new group of actors.

Apparently Amarga navidad is about metafiction, with another man making a movie inside the main plot, or viceversa, like Bad Education or Broken Embraces. The sect the woman says, reminds me the 4 films made by Carlos Vermut. Terrific cinema.

Vermut was denounced by several women, I believe him.
I don't belive the bloody Goverment and its minions El Pais or communist digitals with their Me too (Adolfo Suarez, and the last, Julio Iglesias)

Nobody will go to cinemas for this Almodovar's movie. He's Pedro Sanche'z vedette, speaker and star.
I can't stand that any more.

New actors, yes, the leading woman is Vermut's star in Magical Girl (terrible, it's like Epstein world in Madrid)
Almodovar liked very much the film, and Queen Letizia too. Let's not think about "conspiracy" that's THE reality.
