About this product

Product Information

A shooting in the Madrid apartment of Elena (Francesca Neri), an Italian dope addict, leaves policeman David (Javier Bardem) a paraplegic and Victor (Liberto Rabal), her would-be date, in prison. Years later, Victor gets out of jail but is obsessed with Elena, now clean, sober, and married to David, who has transcended his handicap by becoming a wheelchair basketball champion. The brooding, resentful Victor starts sleeping with their friend Clara (Angela Molina), the sexually restless wife of David's jealous, alcoholic former cop partner, and finds out some harsh truths about what really happened that fateful night. Eventually love, desire, obsession, and betrayal all whirlwind into confrontations both deadly and intensely sexual.<BR>Based on the novel by Ruth Rendell, this colorful, vibrant film from Spanish director Pedro Almodovar overflows with rich, sensual performances and beauty captured by graceful camerawork, enhanced by a sizzling musical score by Alberto Iglesias. Penelope Cruz appears as Victor's mother, a prostitute who gives birth to him on a bus in the film's brilliant opening.

ReviewsRolling Stone - ...LIVE FLESH, buoyed by keenly observed performances, is wildly seductive, subversively funny and coiled to spring..., Sight and Sound - ...LIVE FLESH is a fully realised work...It is a complex and moving film that is beautiful to look at. You'll want to see it again..., USA Today - ...[LIVE FLESH] is frankly erotic and, frankly, fascinating...
