Movie Haiku:Almodóvarian “hall of mirrors;” stories within stories; constantly shifting POV. If you like this kind of film - & we both do – no one does them better. Bernal plays 3 distinct characters superbly. He’s the femme fatale (like Barbara Stanwyck in DOUBLE INDEMNITY), in a “noir” filmed in dazzling color.
