56KZerrissene Umarmungen: Directed by Pedro Almodóvar. With Penélope Cruz, Lluís Homar, Blanca Portillo, José Luis Gómez. Harry Caine, a blind writer, reaches this moment in time when he has to heal his wounds from 14 years back. He was then still known by his real name, Mateo Blanco, and directing his last movie.
“This is a very complex thriller, but also very rewarding. This is director Pedro Almodovaru0026#39;s film with the broadest spectrum. There are numerous plotu0026#39;s and subplots and it all seems a bit confusing, but once again, Almodovar brilliantly pulls it all together by the films end. Penelope Cruz is radiantly beautiful and gives her usual excellent performance. Lluis Homar, Blanca Portillo and Jose Luis Gomez give superb performances. Almodovar is so amazingly visual, and there are several unforgettable images in Broken Embraces. The characters develop so incredibly well and the blending of all the stories is so striking to watch. Superbly done.”
