All About My Mother
SPAIN - Rated R - 105 minutes
Thursday, July 27 at 7:00pm
Directed by Pedro Almodovar. Academy Award and Golden Globe winner - Best Foreign Film. Weaving life and art into a rich tapestry of love, loss and companion, “All About My Mother” is a whole new order of Almodovar extravaganza. This film’s assorted females — real, theatrical or would be — move past the nervous breakdown stage and onto something much more forgiving. The world of acting becomes a source of inspiration to women as they improvise their way through their own lives with strength, passion and humor. It is all about how tragedies of the flesh can yield renewal and hope despite the pain they leave behind and is Pedro Almodovar’s best film so far.
