¡Cómo se puede ser machista con semejante par de tetas!
Sergio Muñoz EsquerAug 29, 2021“To Bette Davis, Gena Rowlands, Romy Schneider... To all actresses who have played actresses, to all women who act, to all men who act and become women, to all the people who want to be mothers. To my mother.” - Dedication, Todo Sobre Mi Madre -Pedro Almodovar

One of the delightful pleasures of All About My Mother is the way these chaotic characters fall so easily into each other’s upended lives, so that those in need of care become indistinguishable from the caregivers. Rosa tries to find Manuela a job, only to have Manuela…
Josh LarsenMar 8, 2024the first step to any succesful almodóvar film is not to give men more than 3 lines in the whole movie
lucia🎞Mar 2, 2021Almodovar is possibly one of the few male directors who actually knows how to pay homage to women. As it’s made clear with the final scene, this film is a love letter to all the women in Pedro’s life, to the women who nurtured him, who made an impression on him, who…

Almodóvar knows how to reach its best. You don't see spanish movies like his anywhere. It makes you think, feel, and enjoy cinema, and that's what I look for. Didn't give me an afterwards existential crisis, that's why it's not a fave🤪
nevan lovedAll About My Motherhonestly some of the greatest female characters i have ever seen brought to life in a film; imbued with color, charisma, heart, and raw emotion, this is an inspired watch with important messages and themes. perfect writing and performances, one to revisit and thoroughly enjoy
I eat movies lovedAll About My MotherUn sentimiento que jamás pensé experimentar al ver esta película… Maravillosa en cada sentido, la música, las tomas, y sobre todo la actuación tan teatral. Sentí cada momento con una pequeña lágrima en mi ojo; la garganta apretada y un sentimiento de emoción inexplicable.

The colors in this film are stunning. You quickly sense the essence of each person and makes it enjoyable to care and be invested in them. Manuela’s role as a caretaker is beautiful.

The most heartfelt tribute to women -- specifically, actresses -- he's (Almodovar) ever made.
Kevin Maynard
Mr. Showbiz
This is more than a movie: It's Almodovar's design for living.
Carrie Rickey
Philadelphia Inquirer
It's enough to make your head spin, but Almodovar, whose mastery of the medium has never been more assured, gives you plenty to think about, ultimately grounding the dizzy whirl of his idiosyncratic fictional world in a story that feels not just true but universal.
