Pedro Almodóvar has a delightful way of telling a story.

Without discussing the plot, Broken Embraces (Los Abrazos Rotos) is reminiscent of Hitchcock both in the telling of the story and visuals. There is  something sinister going on and the audience is intrigued and charmed.

It’s funny and sad and never forced. Penelope Cruz and Blanca Portillo both blessed with extraordinary faces that deliver comedic lines with a seriousness that add to the plot of the movie. The film also stars Lluís Homar a seasoned, rugged, good looking actor and director who is perfect in his role.
This is the kind of movie that requires more then one viewing (always with sub-titles). There is a lot more to see and to be fascinated with. Good flick.
