The story and it's characters are alive, it cannot be otherwise. The authenticity of each portrait is staggering.
You watch this not as a movie but as a documentary : that's how real and good everyone is in this movie. They all exist in some parallel universe.
I come back to it every 3-4 years and re watch and it never fails to impress me with its comedy, wit and soul and realism of the performance.
Almodovar will make you fall in love with people and their flaws and magic.
One of his early masterpieces and one of my favorite movies.
