Iconic [[Useful Notes/Spain|Spanish]] director, known for his mastery of blending [[Melodrama]], comedy, and intelligent social commentary. Getting his start in [[The Seventies]], shortly after the death of Francisco Franco led to a massive opening and blossoming of modern Spanish culture, with film, music, and other arts being given an opportunity to experiment after four decades of repression. There were subcultures flying everywhere--while most had existed even in Franco's time, they were no longer forced to be underground. Almodovar--himself gay, a community that did not have a nice time under Franco's conservative regime--turns to this, and its relationship with what came before, for material. |
