"You gonna order something, kid?"
"Ah, yeah... Give me a Tab."
"Tab? I can't give you a tab unless you order something."
"Alright, give me a Pepsi Free."

Good one :D
No, no, no, no. You gotta listen to the way people talk. You don't say "affirmative," or some shit like that. You say "no problemo." And if someone comes on to you with an attitude you say "eat me." And if you want to shine them on it's "hasta la vista, baby." |

I tried for the most Spanish film I could think of with epic proportions! :D We do have another film from Spain we like called Talk To Her, which is a dark tale with many twists and strange love.  _________________ https://www.facebook.com/Let-the-drink-talk-675586225966432/ |

Talk To Her (2002)
Premise: This is the story of two men who become friends based upon a shared love of women who are in comas, although their individual instances are completely different. First, there is newspaper journalist Marco (Grandinetti), who meets and falls in love with a famous female bullfighter, Lydia (Flores), just as she is breaking up with another famous matador. After they've been together for just a few months, however, she is gored in the ring, and her battered and torn body goes into a coma, her brain severed from communicating with the rest of her. At the hospital, Marco meets a male nurse, Benigno (Camara), whose only job it appears is to care for a beautiful young dancer, Alicia (Watling), who is also in a coma. The intensity of care that Benigno is willing to give Alicia belies secrets about his true relationship with her, secrets that Marco discovers as he finds solace in his friendship with him in the months that follow... (The film is bookended by dance performances, with characters from the movie watching from the audience, and in the middle, it has a "movie-within-the-movie", as Benigno describes a strange old silent movie he once saw, which serves as a parallel for his story line).
Official Premise: Here's the official premise:
"The curtain of salmon colored roses and heavy gold fringing which covers the stage is pulled back to reveal a Pina Bausch spectacle, Cafi M|ller. Among the spectators, two men are sitting together by chance. They don't know each other. They are Benigno (a young nurse) and Marco (a writer in his early forties). On the stage, filled with wooden chairs and tables, two women, their eyes closed and their arms extended, are moving to the music of The Fairy Queen, by Henry Purcell. The piece is so moving that Marco starts to cry. Benigno can see the gleam of his chance companion's tears, in the darkness of the stalls. He'd like to tell him that he too is moved by the spectacle but he doesn't dare."
"Months later, the two men meet again at "El Bosque", a private clinic where Benigno works. Lydia, Marco's girlfriend and a bullfighter by profession, has been gored and is in a coma. It so happens that Benigno is looking after another woman in a coma, Alicia, a young ballet student."
"When Marco walks by the door of Alicia's room, Benigno doesn't think twice before speaking to him. It's the start of an intense friendship... as lineal as a roller coaster. During this period of suspended time between the walls of the clinic, the lives of the four characters will flow in all directions, past, present and future, dragging all of them towards an unsuspected destiny."

There are some good films by Almodovar. But I haven't seen "Talk to her" yet. I enjoyed the very first Almodovar's films: "Pepi, Lucy, Bom y otras chicas del montón" (Pepi, Luci, Bom and Other Girls Like Mom) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081323/, where you could see the best of 80's in Madrid (mad people, rock, punk, drugs, sex, night life... also a longest dick contest presented by Almódovar himself). He spent 3 years filming this movie. He have to wait to get more money to make the film. All the staff in the film are friends of Pedro Almodovar. In these years Almodovar have little works to get money and wrote several screenplays to theater and short films. He also founded a great glam rock band with Fabio McNamara (one famous song was called "Voy a ser mamá", which means "I'm going to became Mom").
Another great Almodovar film was "Entre tinieblas" (Dark Habits) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085496/, with the action placed in an old convent, with extremily weird and hilarious nuns. One of them, calmly looks for a vein and pricks heroine herself while talking. And there is a tiger in the convent. Absolutely surrealist...
Another film was "¿Qué he hecho yo para merecer esto?" What Have I Done to Deserve This? or how to kill your husband with a bone of iberic ham... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088461/ _________________ http://zombi-blogia.blogspot.com/ |
