Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJulieta Serrano and Antonio Banderas already played mother and son, more than 30 years before, in another two movies by Pedro Almodóvar: Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (1988) and Matador (1986)
- GoofsThe brown paper cement bag on which Eduardo draws Salvador is not the same one that Salvador discovers in the art gallery years later. The white paint that almost completely covers the paper in the childhood scene later covers only half of the large circular printed label and the "35 KG" printed at the top left is truncated.
- Quotes
Salvador Mallo: The nights that coincide several pains, those nights I believe in God and I pray to him. The days when I only suffer a type of pain I'm an atheist.

Featured review
fascinating
Just fascinating. Not as self- portrait of Almodovar, but as great trip across his themes and fears and art and life. All is great, from the music to the cinematography. And Antonio Banderas performance remains the most precious gift. So, a remarkable drama.
