In Part 2 of this week's episode, we move to Spain, for Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (1988), directed by Pedro Almodovar. It's a movie that takes some serious subject matters and plays them for comedy, but despite that there are no false notes among all the weird coincidences we bump into.
COMING ATTRACTIONS:
We return to Asia for our next episode. Our first entry is the Japanese film Shoplifters (2018), which also has some serious moments in it, but overall it's a truly adorable story. Then in Part 2 we move to Korea for Parasite (2019), which won FOUR--count 'em, four Oscars, including three pretty big ones.
