After years of not communicating, they meet again in an extreme but strangely cute situation
Story
Ingrída and Marta were close friends in their youth when they worked together in the same magazine. IMDb editor Arno Kazarian offers quick images of the 12 films he screened at the 2024 New York Film Festival, including Anora and the dangerous, strangely erotic Misericordia. ..
The story could be good
Pedro Almodovar’s first feature film in English. Featured on The 7PM Project: September 8, 2024 Episode (2024). But there is something completely wrong with the way the movies sound in terms of dialogues.
This makes the dialogues feel sour, sometimes reeking of clichés
It looks like someone took a decent movie and cut it badly to leave only the 'essentials' phrases. More often than not, the scenes don’t have the kind of recording that makes the climax possible and surprising. Instead, each scene seems to be cut only for its main message.
The right ingredients
What could have been powerful moments were simply skimmed over like a house of cards. The talents of the actresses do not save them. Sometimes it seemed that the script was written in another language and then translated.
Unfortunately, bad taste
