I don’t think I would have got anything from this movie had I not read the book. Jerky,disjointed filming & such little dialogue failed to translate the true horrors therein,even the brief snapshot of the lead characters unfair incarceration

So amazingly bad it was good.As always I watch for the amazing kitchen & obviously dramatic coastal scenes! Pretty obvious Adam had an axe to grind from the get go! Pretty sure Angela Griffin& Annabelle Scholey never want another “hard set chin” scenario EVER again!! Good fun !!

I had such high expectations with actors of the Swinton/Moore calibre! Almodavar May have done better to stick to Spanish as the dialogue seemed to be translated word for word on screen between the actors who seemed as bored as I was! At least give me an insight into why Moore’s character decided to even do the “support act”since she was scared of death,hadn’t seen or heard of Tilda for yonks & seemed to know nothing about her anyway! Quotes from The Dead (James Joyce)possibly the best bits!
