Sure, I'll push. It's just that I feel like people seem to love Talk to Her more and I wonder if All About My Mother has too much personal resonance for me. But people should definitely be watching it and stuff. For instance, just looking at that screenshot is a little hard for me :'(.


Tonight: Paris, Texas
Can't wait.

not sure why i always forget about Almodovar, i need to revisit All About My Mother, my fave from him; i'm still missing out on Talk to Her
But I wish the public could, in the midst of its pleasures, see how blatantly it is being spoon-fed, and ask for slightly better dreams.

AAMM made the first list and TtH didn't, so maybe not.

Do you think the the mother and son's relationship is REALLY weird at the start? Takes the Oedipus complex to a new (disturbing) level.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

Nice, I didn't bother checking the list while posting these. I approve though, obviously :). I don't need to rewatch it at all to know it belongs but I will now, having posted that screenshot and all.

Watching Stalker right now. Unless it gets really amazing all of a sudden in the last act it's not making my top 100.  :-\

Planning on watching Rivers & Tides tonight. Already seen most of it, but in bits in pieces. Need to see it from beginning to end for once.

i think I'm going to do a million more rankings on Flickchart and then post my 100 from there.

Do you happen to have any beta invites for that?  I've been dying to try it out.

Well I feel stupid.  Last time I had checked it was in private beta I thought.  Anyway... thanks.   ;D
