Alana Pockros at The Point:
If you are a leading woman in a Pedro Almodóvar film, your life will not be frictionless. You will have a terminal illness. Or if you don’t have one, you will be grieving the one that someone very close to you has. You will be a single mother or mother-to-be. You will have very intimate female friendships, but you won’t always be faithful, or act selflessly. You will work a creative career, such as writing or acting or photographing products for advertisements. You won’t care too much about traditional values even though your Catholic family or community does. You will smoke cigarettes and pop pills when you’re stressed. You might have paid a pretty penny for your breasts, or have been naturally endowed. You will be unconventionally, or maybe conventionally, beautiful, and always expressive. You will be middle-aged. You will have a romantic Castilian accent. You might be Penélope Cruz.
