Pedro Almodovar's influence on European popular culture has been
immense. From a small village in rural Spain to international
acclaim for his many wonderfully vivid and outrageous films,
Almodovar On Almodovar tells the story of the man and his films.
Almodovar came from an austere background in rural Spain. It was
the 1950s, the age of the Cold War, of mambo, of Balenciaga, of the
Korean War, of the Hungarian Revolution, of the death of Stalin.
But none of these events bore any impact on his village. In
response, Almodovar's films - such as Bad Education, Women on the
Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, Tie Me Up!, All About My Mother and
Talk to Her to name a few - are colourful and deeply felt
celebrations of life and love. In these frank and passionate
conversations, Almodovar discusses his astonishing life and career
with a humour that is distinctly his own. Pedro Almodovar is widely
acclaimed as one of the most successful Spanish film-makers, having
won two Academy Awards, six European Film Awards, 2 Golden Globe
Awards and 5 BAFTA Awards. His most recent films include Volver
(2006), Broken Embraces (2009), The Skin I Live In (2011) and I'm
So Excited (2013).
