Pain and Glory

R | 1h 53min | Drama | 2019
Why was I so upset Parasite won the “Best Foreign Film” last year? Pain & Glory was the best film of 2019. If you liked Call Me By Your Name - this movie is for you!
Pain & Glory is a coming of age film, loosely based on the director, Pedro Almodóvar’s life - an incredibly brave stare into the mirror touching upon sexuality, drug use, growing older and passion for life. Antonio Banderas, who plays the main character, gives a career defining performance; so in sync with this character - flawless.
Pedro Almodóvar’ body of work is unreal - The Skin I Live In, Bad Education, Talk To Her, Volver -check out these films as well!
