BROKEN EMBRACES: ANOTHER ALMODOVAR ARTWORK

Pedro Almodóvar has a magic touch and he proves it once again with this film. Lluis Homar is Harry Caine, a blind writer with a complicated past. He is confronted with a mysterious visitor who sends him back 14 years in his past to review the heartbreaking events that changed him forever. Penelope Cruz is heavenly as Lena, an aspiring actress and alluring woman who steals Harry's heart. Actually, she steals Mateo's heart, but that's another story.
