“Pain and Glory”
The order in which I watched the movies of Almodovar was a flashback.
The first film I watched was his semi-autobiographical “Pain and Glory.” At this time, Almodovar, through the years of desire, had a lot of physical and mental nights, exiled himself, and their passions cooled from boiling.

The film begins with El Salvador’s examination of his body. He suffers from chronic pharyngitis, otitis, tinnitus, migraine, insomnia, depression, etc. Lumbar fusion surgery makes him and the spine, like humans and Greek gods, “to sacrifice this way.” He jokingly said: “On the night when many kinds of illnesses come together, I believe in God.

Crazy, thrilled and powerful, almost completely swallowed up the body. Sickness and sex are the two poles of the body. The former is introverted and concealed, and the latter is arrogant. Both, at the same time constitute the characteristics of his film.
“Talk to her”
In the skin of My Habitat, one side is burned skin, scars, muscles, and one side is a meticulous and calm suture, and the transformation of the body brings emotional dislocation. At the beginning of “Say to Her”, Pina’s dance appeared, and the sleepwalking woman clashed, desperately mourning, and the man rushed away from the obstacle. The body, always overflowing and expanding, has to rush out of its own field. In the film “The Law of Desire”, the body is
