Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown 1988

When the opening credits are enough to make you fall in love. "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" is one of Almodovar’s classic comedies: over-the-top and farcical, but still pervaded by that underlying sense of melancholy. The cinematography didn’t age too well, but the use of bold colors in the sets, costumes, and make-up still manage to give a highly captivating look - right in between chic and kitsch.

The original title of the film is Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios.

Absolutely obsessed with the women of Almodovar. This movie is just too iconic, his vision is on another plane of reality.

One of Spain's most internationally successful films.

It has neither feet nor head. Rossy de Palma is amazing on the bitter edge paper. it doesn't make sense, maybe in 2022 it's not the same as in 1988. carmen maura is very right
