In this hostage drama and romantic comedy, Almodovar casts one of his favorite actors, Antonio Banderas, in the role of a former psychiatric patient who kidnaps his ex-girlfriend to make her love him again. However, she cannot quite seem to remember him. Exploding with color, discomfort, and eroticism, this film acts as one of Almodovar's most ambitious and controversial films as he explores when love and violence meet.
