The Skin I Live In

Yesterday Nicole and I finally went to Theatre N to see La piel que habito and it was phenomenal - just as I expected. It was beautiful and lush, viciously disturbing, and bizarrely tender. More than once, Nicole and I turned to eachother with our mouths hanging open in shock, a mirror for the other; just when we thought we'd seen it all, we discovered that the unexpected was just around the corner.
Antonio Banderas has never looked more dashing and handsome and Pedro Almodóvar has created another gorgeous work of art.
