Sometimes the dead come back to finish what they left undone. Raimunda (Penelope Cruz) and Irene's (Carmen Maura) passed on mother feels the same and floats back into the lives of her daughters. One would think that such a theme would make for a dark and brooding film. But Pedro Almodovar is wickedly cunning as always and each scene in the film is like a colorful painting. And when such colors drape the stunning Penelope Cruz on the screen, it does indeed call for something special.
