An average movie

Honestly, I'm not really knowledgeable about Spanish cinema. I mean, I have seen my share of Pedro Almodovar features but I'm rather oblivious concerning the other movies made there. I have seen also a few movies directed by Bigas Luna who might not have such a prestigious international reputation like Almodovar but his work is really interesting nonetheless. His most famous movie must be 'Jamón, jamón', a rather erotic flick starring a very young Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem almost 20 years before they became an item. So, this other movie was also directed by Bigas Lunas, and even though it was not as good as 'Jamón, jamón', it was still a decent watch. It stars actually two French actors, Mathilda May and Gérard Darmon. I always had a weak spot for Darmon and Mathilda May was really charming, even though I haven't seen many movies starring her. Still, even though this story about this man obsessed with breasts was rather intriguing, I still had a hard time to get really into it and the slow pace didn't help much either. To conclude, even though the whole thing didn't really blow me away, it still remain an intriguing erotic feature and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in Spanish movies.
