If you loved Strange Way of Life, try La Loi du désir

Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.

Ce qu'ils partagent

Both films are directed by Pedro Almodóvar, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Strange Way of Life, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La Loi du désir is

A Madrid apartment in midsummer, the hum of a refrigerator never quite drowning out the tapping of a typewriter. A celebrated film-maker, nursing a lover’s departure, casts his trans sister in a solo play and watches her command the stage. Then the uptight stranger starts calling collect from a phone booth across town. Third-act fireworks from a director who still thinks the heart isn’t bulletproof.
