Volver

Release date: 10 March 2006 (Spain)

Oh, what a wonderful, wonderful film! Pedro Almodóvar's (who is gay btw) Volver is simple, profound, complex, gorgeous. The story/screenplay is brilliant, woven thickly and incorporates today, yesterday, a ghost, a death and a murder ... and lots of stunning women, Penelope Cruz (playing the lead character Raimunda) in particular (who I would hope receives an Oscar nod). Too interlaced and beautiful to dare spoil by trying to explain here, I'll simply say, see it!

My rating 9 out of 10.
