Review of Talk to Her (2002) by Stewart G — 28 Oct 2009
The male nurse tending a beautiful comatose woman bathes her nude body, talks endlessly to her of art, dance finally makes love to her and impregnates her. Escandalo. The nurse is jailed but, giving birth, speech and movement are restored to his patient.
And out of dark materials and an offhand surrealist style, Almodóvar fashions a wondrously ironic tale of redemption, which TIME accurately called a "profoundly witty and unique" experience.
