The Flower of My Secret19 reviews
Marisa Paredes, Juan Echanove
Sony Pictures, 2005
Pain and life . . .
+ Abandonment and recovery
+ A suprisingly "light" foreign film / Una sorpresa

Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!33 reviews
Victoria Abril, Antonio Banderas
Manga Films
Perceptively witty / sexy comedy. Banderas as psycho!
