If you loved Carne trémula, try Los abrazos rotos
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Pedro Almodóvar, and they both carry the bittersweet, sexy, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Carne trémula, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Los abrazos rotos is
A Madrid apartment in late autumn, the hum of a manual typewriter lingering. A man who no longer uses his real name taps out the past—his last film, his lost lover, the woman who wore red. Scissors click through film reels. Now his fingers trace the edges of memory. A blind writer stitches the fractured frames of his greatest regret together.
