I love this movie so much

Excellent adaptation.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The story is about two men and the girls they love who are now in comas. I really loved the beauty of the movie. The actors are fantastic and they are greatly helped by the entire cast and a weird but good story.Though initially I felt like that, the ending of the story made me change that opinion. I thought about it a lot. It was an ethical ending, but not the one that did poetic justice.Maybe if it was a documentary I would have liked it more.I personally would not recommend this movie, but seeing that it has a massive 8.0 rating here, I guess I am the exception.

Talk to Her, directed by Pedro Almodovar, is about the friendship between 2 men caring for 2 comatose women. With TTH, go in knowing very little about the plot and brave yourselves. This movie is an emotionally devastating juggernaut full of gut-wrenching story beats, moral ambiguity and meticulously constructed themes. Although TTH takes a little while to get going and certain things feel a bit illogical, once it hits its stride you'll be unable to look away. While the performances are all around excellent, the star of the show is Almodovar. His script is disturbing, haunting, moving and never boring, and the way he constructs the movie visually is brilliant but also ingeniously subtle, meaning he doesn't resort to loads of flashy visuals to tell the story. It's a film which rewards repeat viewings enormously, and the film is so layered and complex that you'll constantly be re-interpreting the film and noticing new details. TTH is a really excellent drama and an unusually intelligent one at that. It shows an auteur at the top of his game and to study and analyse the film is like studying and analysing a great novel. It's a film that's really worth checking out, just don't read any spoilers beforehand. It may not be a thriller, but it will leave you breathless.9/10

Pedro Almodóvar follows his international success All About My Mother with an offbeat drama that explores the friendship of two men brought together under unusual but strangely similar circumstances. Benigno (Javier Camára) is a male nurse whose apartment overlooks a dance studio run by Katerina (Geraldine Chaplin); he often sits on his balcony and watches one of Katerina's students, Alicia (Leonor Watling), and he finds himself becoming infatuated with her. When Alicia is severely injured in an auto accident that leaves her in a coma, Benigno discovers she has been admitted to the hospital where he works, and he spends his days caring for a woman he now deeply loves but has barely met. Marco (Darío Grandinetti) is a journalist who was assigned to interview Lydia (Rosario Flores), a well-known female bullfighter whose on-the-rocks romance with another toreador, "El Niño de Valencia" (Adolfo Fernández), has made her the focus of the tabloid press. During Marco's interview with Lydia, he goes out of his way to treat her kindly, and she appears to return his attention. During the bullfight which follows, Lydia is gored by the bull, and is now in a coma; Marco is certain his interview broke her steely concentration, and he spends most of his days at the hospital, convinced her injuries are his fault. Alicia and Lydia are both housed in the same ward of the same hospital, and in time Benigno and Marco become close friends, bonding in their shared devotion to women who cannot return their affection.

"Talk to Her" shows two parallel stories that are correlated, two lonely men expect a miracle and in that twist of fate their women are in a coma and they should expect them to wake up. The story takes place between the present and past of romantic relationships of two couples. When I saw this movie for the first time, I felt seeing the most beautiful movie I had seen in my life. I had deep feelings for the situations that the characters lived. After the first feeling I wanted to know more of this director's work. I started to see other movies and quickly I realized that I was completely impressed by the work of Almodovar, especially for its complex and unpredictable full of depth and emotion content. "Talk to Her" is a film full of symbolism, colors that remain in memory, music (Caetano Veloso) that makes the imagination and passion fly, passion for life and death. The naturalness of the performances and sensual universe created is simply magnificent. In short, this drama of impossible love, painful memories and beautiful images, is the kind of movie I love to watch and I would love to do. This is a film that invites you to reflect on life and causes a lot of emotions.
