Directed by Pedro Almodóvar (1991)

Pedro Almodóvar’s eccentric homage to the classic mother-daughter melodrama traces the relationship between a flamboyant actress and her estranged daughter who become entangled in a murder case when the mom’s first love - and daughter’s husband - is killed. Through a twist-filled plot, Almodóvar crafts a stylish, witty, gender-bending soap opera.
