Return of Pedro Almodovar

September 29, 2006

20060929_volver_260x220.jpgHe’s the gayest thing is movies – person, director, yes, sorry, “thing” is not nice. And we love him. Really, he makes us crazy with admiration.

The movie opens here November 3.

Pedro Almodovar is going back to the Oscars this year. That’s our bet now that Spain is sending his latest movie Volver -- a comic drama about women making do without men (something we know a lot about) has been chosen to represent Spain among movies vying to be candidates for the best foreign film Oscar.

Volver, stars Penelope Cruz, who thank goddess returned to her Spanish roots and to Almodovar to save her career. He discovered her. Made her. And then she went off to Hollywood and became of Freak! Remember Vanilla Sky and the pseudo-Tom Cruise affair? Gross.

Almodovar's All About My Mother won the 2000 Oscar for best foreign film and Talk to Her won the 2003 Oscar for best original screenplay.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will announce its five candidates for best foreign film Jan. 23. The Oscar ceremony will be held Feb. 25 at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, Calif.

What a coicidence! We just saw "Women on the Verge" this week for the 135th time. It's our favorite. We love this man, and every single one of his movies. Oh well, at least one of us does. We saw the preview for "Volver" and it does look promising.
