About this product

Product Information

This colorful hit put director Pedro Almodóvar on the international map and cemented the reputation of its star, Carmen Maura. The film is a peppy little soap bubble as TV actress Pepa (Maura) wakes up to find a note from her lover, Ivan (Fernando Guillén), informing her he is leaving. Desperate to tell him some important information, Pepa almost kills herself with sleeping pills, burns her bed, and spends most of the movie trying to track him down. Her adventures put her in contact with Ivan's insane ex-wife (Julieta Serrano), his handsome son (Antonio Banderas), and the son's fiancée (Rossy de Palma). They all descend on her penthouse apartment in a deliriously comic extended scene, complicated by a pitcher full of narcotic gazpacho and her friend Candela (María Barranco), a ditzy beauty wanted by the police for associating with Shiite terrorists. Through it all, the indefatigable Pepa fights gallantly against her crushing heartbreak. As a testament to the resilient beauty of women, this free-spirited film rings true and is a treasure. Also appearing are Chus Lampreave, Kiti Manver, Yayo Calvo, and Guillermo Montesinos as the hilarious driver of the Mambo Taxi.

  • women on the verge if a nervous breakdown

    The reason I decided to buy this product was because its so difficult to find on DVD. You can purchase the entire collection of Almodovar movies on "Viva Pedro" but I was interested in owning only this movie on DVD. Its my favorite movie of all time. I have watched it about a hundred times and never get tired of it. Carmen Maura does such an excellent performance! You understand and "feel" all her emotions. It begins with desperation, then sadness, turns to anger and finally to indifference to her once lover Ivan. Its (in my opinion) one of the best movies about empowerment and taking control of your life.

  • women on the verge of a nervous breakdown

    i found this movie to be okay, it seemed hard to follow at times, because you have to read english subtitles through the whole movie. so watch it when you are alone or undisturbed. it is about a woman who falls in love with a man, who is what i would call a player. he has multiple partners and cares for himself. she goes through a lot just to reach him through the movie to tell him something he really needs to know. she learns more about his secrets, woman, and even a son. tring to keep herself together, she also has a friend who is in trouble.and he has a maniac ex who is tring to kill him. does she tell him her secret? does she find him before it is to late? this is a rare dvd, and is oop. out of print. great for anyone's collection and not a bad movie. a rate it good. did this help? ...
