Noir Sexuality

Pedro Almodovar is a master at what no other director can achieve, bringing out the simpathetic side of the most tragic and obscure scenes and characters.
If there is something this movie lacks is female characters and is a pity: no other director in the world can get inside of a woman's flesh the way he does and direct the most natural representations of women in all of their different facets.
Bad Education is about the trials and tribulations of an abused child, his cinical and damaged brother, a director hooked on an early infatuation and the priest who touches or destroys their lives. Gael Garcia confirms his strong perfomance, both as a tormented hetero forced to enter the homo lifestyle. Jimenez Cacho delivers one of the strongest and most haunting performances in cinema history representing a very rigid priest who gives in to his most obscure desires.
Almodovar ties strong perfomances, colorful characters, cartoonish sets and takes the viewer in a very noir trip to the sexual drives of a very damaged group, accomplishing what he always do, show the lighter and darker sides of the most terrible situations.
