Bitter Christmas
A film by Pedro Almodóvar
w/ Bárbara Lennie, Leonardo Sbaraglia, Aitana Sánchez-Gijón
During a long December holiday weekend, a woman, whose mother has recently died, throws herself into work as a form of escape. Her relentless pace is interrupted when a panic attack forces her to take a break.
It’s accomplished with Mr. Almodóvar’s usual impeccable taste in design and flair for melodrama, and boasts one of the finest scores of his longtime collaborator Alberto Iglesias’s career.
