Because it’s a totally normal thing to do I’m now listening to the scores from all the Almodovar films that are on spotify.
I’m always in the mood for Almodovar. I watched his films obsessively in high school, even the bad and obscure ones (oh Dark Habits, Kika, Laberinto de Pasiones). I love just everything about the world he creates. The melange of color and darkness, humor and pain, the camp and the real. The ridiculous stories.
Todo Sobre Mi Madre may be my favorite, but Átame!, Mujeres al Borden … . I now realize I’m naming nearly his whole filmography, because, really, all of them.
I think I’m two US releases behind now. Oh the passions you lose track of with age.

Seriously. I am a woman cooking in a brightly tiled kitchen singing Spanish folk songs while you and your transexual best friend plot to cover up the murder of the man who tried to rape her. ALMODOVAR GRANDMA. The only problem is my cardigan isn’t red.
Man, I love me some Almodovar.
Not feeling my best. Fashion inspiration today is a grandma from an Almodovar film.
