Product Description
PAIN AND GLORY tells of a series of re-encounters experienced by Salvador Mallo (Antonio Banderas), a film director in his physical decline. Some of them in the flesh, others remembered: his childhood in the 60s, when he emigrated with his parents to a village in Valencia in search of prosperity, the first desire, his first adult love in the Madrid of the 80s, the pain of the breakup of that love while it was still alive and intense, writing as the only therapy to forget the unforgettable, the early discovery of cinema, and the void, the infinite void that creates the incapacity to keep on making films.

There is nothing completely "new" or surprising here. And normally, this would be a negative. But in this case, this is simply the most-almodovaresque of all his movies of the recent two decades, and while it brings nothing entirely surprising to the screen, for long-time fans it is a perfect "summary / essence" of Almodóvar. In the movie the (fictional?) director talks about a museum wanting to do a retrospective exhibit of his paintings (and he declines), and I'd say that this movie is best described as an Almodóvar retrospective: his long-time fans will find here the echoes of many movies past, familiar scenes and motifs; settings, faces, and relationships, evoked, rather than directly referred to or quoted, but executed to perfection. Like the short, famous videoclip of Picasso painting a bull on a pane of glass with just a few quick, amazingly fluid brushstrokes is the epitome of Picasso, this film is the same thing for Almodovar.
It is gorgeously shot, with minute attention to every smallest detail in the frame. I have spent many hours discussing films (including several of his) with college film-class students, and usually referred to the 1999 Todo sober mi madre, or the 202 Hable con ella as classic examples of his style, but this is maybe even better.
Some people might find the plot a bit ensimismado = self-centered, and with the world around us gone completely crazy (in 2020-21), overindulgent musings of a famous, rich, and spoiled aging film director of campy arthouse movies is not what some people might want to spend time on, but then again, if that's the case, then they should not be watching an Almodóvar movie...
The ending is open to interpretation and discussion.
Any fans of the Antonio Banderas and Penelope Cruz, and who isn’t, should be well satisfied.
Watching movies and reading subtitles is not my favorite thing, but I believe that the Spanish language is essential for this film.
I was deeply touched by the affection between the two lovers, even after such a long time.
I understand how he felt after he lost his mother. How many of us found out after our parents passed away that we could have been better sons or daughters?
Antonio Banderas' acting surpassed my expectations.
I would give this movie 6 stars if I could.
Don't listen to the 1-star raters, see for yourself.

A very interesting autobiographical approach is taken here, which should be loved by anyone who enjoys Euro style movies.
