Pedro Almodovar's new film, while initially struggling to adjust to its English language environment, eventually flourishes in its exploration of friendship and mortality.
The film's dialogue, deeply rooted in Spanish culture, feels somewhat flat in English, but the poignant emotional interactions between Ingrid and Martha eventually resonate.
The fragility of the film mirrors its themes: life, death, and the estranged connections we navigate as we confront our deepest fears.
Set against the backdrop of a brutalist house, the film evolves into a profound examination of old friends confronting life's ultimate questions together.
