“I. Short review:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHalf autobiographic, half fiction, Almodóvaru0026#39;s most intimate work is an european drama carved with humor and intense emotions you wouldnu0026#39;t want to miss, Antonio Banderas is a tour de force.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eII. Full review:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSince this yearu0026#39;s Cannes Film Festival celebration in which Pain and Glory competed for the Palm du0026#39;Or for best picture and supposedly the favorite to win, I took quite interest in Almodóvaru0026#39;s new film, also my personal experiences with two of his films that Iu0026#39;ve seen, u0026#39;Talk to Heru0026#39; (which I think is an absolute masterpiece), and the very creative thriller u0026#39;The Skin I Live Inu0026#39; (also starring Antonio Banderas), were strong factors of that interest.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film tells the story of a depressed and aching director that reconnects with old friends and people he used to care about, at the time that he reflects on his humble but enlightning past in several ways, all from the perspective of his gloomy and lonesome present.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePain and Glory escalates in a ladder of triumphs, since its mesmerizing soundtrack by Alberto Iglesias (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy), an astonishing cinematography by José Luis Alcaine, a masterful direction and gripping script by Pedro Almodóvar, to its top and greatest gift of all: a colossal performance by Antonio Banderas, which justifies his award for best actor in Cannes 2019.”
