Almodovar on Almodovar is the definitive guide to the man and his movies. Speaking freely, frankly and with infectious humour to interviewer Frederic Strauss, Almodovar offers innumerable views and insights into his life, his creative process, his films, and his oft-torrid relationships with actors, including his early muses Carmen Maura and the dashing Antonio Banderas. For fans and admirers alike, Almodovar on Almodovar offers a textbook lesson on the importance of being Pedro.
"Pedro Almodvar doesn't just make movies. Almodvar is the movies. He revels in everything forbidden and forgiving that can transform life into art." --Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
