Almodovar makes me wet.

Seriously. The man knows his way around my twat. After thoroughly enjoying (but not loving) Los Abrazos Rotos, his newest film, Dong Wook and I broke out some of his more recent masterpieces. Though La Mala Educacion is indeed a masterpiece, it's definitely darker than I like my Pedrito to be. I prefer him at his joyfully campiest, such as my all-time favorite Todo Sobre mi Madre. La Agrado, Manuela, and me...Huma Rojo--does it get any better than trannies and pregnant nuns? Dong Wook enjoyed Hable con Ella the most, which I was happy to see. I've never seen a more masterful work where two of the protagonists are in comas. You'll laugh, you'll cry, blah, blah, blah. I want to introduce him to some of Almodovar's older work so that he can understand the trajectory of his work. For now, however, we're going to try and find Volver on DVD. It's around here somewhere. To round things up I just want to comment on Penelope Cruz's sudden hottness. I never thought she was more than merely attractive before Volver. And go figure, it wasn't a fluke! Vicky Christina Barcelona, Los Abrazos Rotos--HOT!!! She has officially topped my 'Chicks I'd Do' list...and as anyone who knows me would know--that list is incredibly short (Scarlett Johansson, and Natalie Portman).
