Talk to her

Talk to her was a very interesting movie. When the movie first started, it seemed so odd because the first thing we saw were these two women performing a intricate dance with chairs and walls. It seemed so vague and awkward. However, once we saw Benigno and Marco's faces it was understood that these two men were actually watching a show. All the connections/relationships in the movie were crucial for the uprising of the plot. Marco's relationship with Lydia was important because it was a relationship that flourished in the beginning, and then by the end it was dead. Benigno was probably the most interesting character for us because he had a complex relationship with Alicia. He was in love with her, but of course she had no idea. The most shocking part for us was at the end of the movie when we discover that Alicia was raped and impregnated by Benigno. We never expected Benigno to be such a desperate and "psychotic" character. It was very sad at the end because he ended up taking his own life just so he can somehow be united with someone he loved. The ending of the movie was very reminiscent of the beginning which was a good tactic used by Almódovar. Overall, this movie was enjoyable and exceeded our expectations. It was a very good movie and it was very unique.
