All About My Mother (Todo Sobre Mi Madre)
This is the story of a woman who loses her son and goes back to the past to try and pick up the pieces. This is a movie filled with humor and wit, and reminds us that we are all fucked up human beings that should remember that in our interactions with each other.
Cecilia Roth in the lead role of the mother who has lost her son is great. A fairly young Penelope Cruz dazzles with her beauty and vulnerability.
Not for those who don't do subtitles or major gay characters. Or for those that can't find anything interesting in a film about women. In other words, maybe if you voted for Bush the second time you should stay away.
