LAW OF DESIRE (La Ley del Deseo) (1987) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Pedro Almodóvar

Written by - Pedro Almodóvar

Starring - Eusebio Poncela, Carmen Maura, Antonio Banderas

"The story between a troubled affair between a sexually disoriented film director and a blue collar boy. An eccentric and creative mix of energy and sensibility which is almost impossible to categorise, though it undoubtedly carries the mark of its maker Almodóvar. The characters in Law of Desire are fascinatingly odd and the story itself feels fresh and original, and the film as a whole could well be taken as an exercise in fearless and free Spanish flamboyance of the post-Franco years."

Drama, Spain
