Spanish, with English subtitles
| Overall Rating: |
|
This story centers on an Executive Producer of movies, who has led an unemotional life in Madrid. His son, who has been living in South America, decides to move in with him. Add Martin's eccentric stoner/actor/best friend, and an unrequited love affair, and the man has to face himself. Will he, with open arms, or will he implode?
I don't want to explain further, except to say that many things happen to Martin. I have to admit, I'd never seen anything from the Spanish Cinema, so I sat down, and didn't expect much. I was pleasantly surprised at the storyline, the characterization, and overall quality of this movie. I'd recommend this film to anyone who likes foreign films, and those who can put up with subtitles. I forget the actual runtime of the movie, but it's more than two hours. I didn't notice, since I was engrossed. Definitely recommended.
